This particular book is a collaboration focused on Insect morphology.More info: The morphology of insects enables the phenomenal success of this class of arthropods. The sheer quantity and diversity of its taxa are matched by a large variation of modifications in its body structure. The high rate of speciation, short generations and long lineage have caused insects to evolve in many ways resulting in very large variations in morphology. These modifications allow insects to occupy almost every ecological niche, utilise a staggering variety of food sources and possess diverse lifestyles. Insect body sizes range from 0.3 mm in the case of mymarid wasps which parasitise insect eggs to the 30 cms wingspan of the American owlet moth Thysania agrippina (family Noctuidae).
