MSNBC's Chris Jansing interviewed the celebrity biologist yesterday as part of a news story about spider silk. As the segment closed, Corwin told Jansing that the average person swallows 10 spiders while sleeping during the course of a year. When Jansing asked if that was really true, he said "Ask any wildlife biologist!" The University of Idaho calls this "total nonsense." The University of Washington says it has "no basis in fact." This urban legend was, in fact, started intentionally by someone who was trying to prove how gullible people can be. I guess Jeff Corwin is just really gullible. Not exactly a trait you'd expect from a scientist.

Bugscope Bugscope is a new educational outreach project of the World Wide Laboratory. The primary goal of the Bugscope project is to demonstrate that relatively low cost, sustainable access to a scanning electron microscope can be made available to K-12 classrooms. Participating classrooms will have the opportunity to control a Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope to image insects at high magnification. Students and teachers control the microscope using web browsers from their classroom computers. The microscope is located at the Beckman Institute at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Home Entophiles Entophiles Hymenoptera membranous wing; Hymen = membrane, ptera = wings. Winged forms of ants, bees and wasps possess 2 pair of membranous wings. Beetles Coleoptera means sheath wings; coleo - sheath, ptera = wings. Beetles front pair of wings are modified to hardened casings, known as elytra, to protect the hind wings and body below. Lepidoptera means scale wings; lepido = scale, ptera = wings. Wings of butterflies and moths are often covered with a colorful mosaic of minute scales. Homoptera means uniform wings; homo = alike, ptera = wings. The front wings of these insects have a uniform textured appearance in contrast to their Cockroaches Cockroaches are fast-running insects often with wings. A few well know species have successfully evolved to exploit human dwellings and food supplies. Odonata means tooth. Apart from jet propulsion, the aquatic nymph often possess an extendable jaw capable of catching prey some distance away from the rest of the head. Flies Diptera means two wings; di = two, ptera = wings. Flies do very well with their single pair of fore wings. The hind pair are often reduced to a couple of knob-like balance organs. Orthoptera means straight wings; ortho = straight, ptera = wings. These insects often have a pair of elongated and thickened forewings and a membranous hind pair.

INSECTS HOME BIOLOGY FILMS GEOGRAPHY ... SPORT When I was a lad, I was fascinated by Ants. All that organised activity and the mounds of earth moved when making a nest. Later, I discovered large wood ants in a forest near London. Then later still while on holiday in Italy, I found some jet black ants with big heads. Nelson Kruschandl - Watch insects working they are amazing machines As you can imagine, curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to keep a few ants to study them more closely. I collected a handful of wood ants (formica rufus), twigs and earth, put them in a large laboratory glass vacuum bowl and bingo, overnight they built a nest. The folks were not too pleased and my mates thought I was crazy, but what fun. Now, wood ants are quite dangerous. Their bite is deep, and worse, they either spray or inject you with formic acid - which really stings. (See the Ant page for more on this). Then when you look at other insects, you realise just how diversified and interesting they are. Some useful, most a nuisance.

The Topic: Insects Easier - Insects are small creatures (animal kingdom) with three pair of legs, a body with three main sections, and tough shell-like outer covering. Insects do not have a backbone. Most have one or two pair of wings and a pair of antennae. Harder - Insects first appeared on earth at least 400 million years ago. Today, they live almost everywhere, from steamy tropical jungles to cold polar regions. Entomologists (scientists who study insects) estimate that the average number of insects for each square mile (2.6 square kilometers) of land equals the total number of people on the earth. Scientists have identified and named more than 11/2 million species of animals. Of these, about 1 million are insects. Entomologists discover from 7,000 to 10,000 new species of insects each year. Some believe there may be from 1 million to 10 million species still undiscovered. In the world of entomology, there are still vast frontiers of knowledge still to be discovered. All insects have three pairs of legs, a body divided into three main parts (head, thorax, and abdomen) and an exoskeleton. The insect's muscles are attached to the inside wall of the exoskeleton. The exoskeleton does not grow with an insect; therefore in time, the exoskeleton becomes too tight and must be shed in a process is called molting. Most adult insects have two large compound eyes, made up of separate, sometimes thousands of lenses. Insects are the only animals besides birds and bats to have wings. Most adult insects have two (flies) or four wings (wasps). Their sense of smell is located chiefly in the antennae. A few insects, like ants, bees, and wasps, also have taste organs on their antennae.

They are a tremendously successful group. Insects can be found in almost all terrestrial and freshwater habitats, from the driest deserts to freshwater ponds, from the canopy of a tropical rainforest (where their diversity is unbelievably great) to the arctic wastes. A few species are even marine. Their feeding habits are similarly varied; almost any substance that has nutritive value is eaten by some group of insects. Insects also show huge variety in shape and form. Almost the only condition their group does not attain is very large body size. A number of features, however, are shared by most kinds of living insects. In addition to the general characteristics of uniramians, these include a body composed of three tagmata, a head, thorax, and abodmen; a pair of relatively large compound eyes and usually three ocelli located on the head; a pair of antennae, also on the head; mouthparts consisting of a labrum, a pair of mandibles, a pair of maxillae, a labium, and a tonguelike hypopharynx; two pairs of wings, derived from outgrowths of the body wall (unlike any vertebrate wings); and three pairs of walking legs.
