Re: How many insects?????

Hi,

according to our resident entomologist at work 9 out of every 10 organisms is an insect - its his justification for every pay rise request as he says he has to work harder on his surveys than we do!

I seem to remember my economic entomology lecturer quoting similar figures -so it might be true.
