"Entomology is the scientific study of insects, a branch of zoology."
The study of insects and their impact on crops and other ecosystems.
"In the past, the term insect was less specific, and historically the definition of entomology would also include the study of animals in other arthropod groups, such as arachnids, myriapods, and crustaceans."
"Entomology overlaps with a cross-section of topics as diverse as molecular genetics, behavior, neuroscience, biomechanics, biochemistry, systematics, physiology, developmental biology, ecology, morphology, and paleontology."
"Over 1.3 million insect species have been described, more than two-thirds of all known species."
"Some insect species date back to around 400 million years ago."
"Entomology is a taxon-based category; any form of scientific study in which there is a focus on insect-related inquiries is, by definition, entomology."
"This wider meaning may still be encountered in informal use."
