There is obviously not a definite number because there are so many kinds of insects that we are not familiar with yet. However, approximate numbers mention as low as 2 million up to as high as 30 million. Scientists cannot still determine the correct number, but it is somewhere between 2 and 30 million species.

There are at least 900,000 species, but many more probably have yet to be discovered. Insects all have bodies consisting of a head, a thorax of three segments, usually three pairs of legs and often one or two pairs of wings. Their heads have compound eyes and long antennae that are sensitive to touch and smell.
