注意:本页面含有Unihan扩展A区用字:「䖵、䗛」。有关字符可能會错误显示,詳见Unicode扩展汉字。 昆虫在分类学上属于昆虫纲(学名:Insecta),是世界上最繁盛的动物,已发现超過100万种。其中單鞘翅目(Coleoptera)中所含的種數就比其它所有動物界中的種數還多。昆字原作䖵。 昆虫的构造有异于脊椎动物,它们的身体并没有内骨骼的支持,外裹一层由几丁质(英文 chitin)构成的壳。这层壳会分节以利于运动,犹如骑士的甲胄。昆虫的身體會分為頭、胸、腹三節,有六隻腿,複眼及一對觸角。昆虫有脂肪體,成分類似脊椎動物的脂肪組織,但作用不同,主要為代謝功能,類似脊椎動物的肝。 昆虫對生態扮演着很非常重要的角色。虫媒花需要得到昆虫的帮助,才能传播花粉。而蜜蜂采集的蜂蜜,也是人们喜欢的食品之一。昆蟲是蜥蜴、青蛙、小型鳥類的重要食物來源。在东南亚和南美的一些地方,昆虫本身就是当地人的食品。 但昆虫也可能對人類產生威脅,如蝗虫會破壞農作物,白蟻破壞木材及建築物。而有一些昆虫,例如蚊子,还是疾病的传播者。 有一些昆蟲能夠藉由毒液或是叮咬會對人類造成傷害,例如虎頭蜂在有人入侵地盤時會以螫針注入毒液等。紅火蟻會分泌有毒物質使接觸動物及人類出現敏感症狀甚至致命。

Insects (from Latin ') are hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta'''. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes, and a pair of antennae. Insects are the most diverse group of animals, with more than a million described species; they represent more than half of all animal species.
