Insects — Boundless diversity
Insects are by far the most diverse group of living organisms. There are over 30’000 species in Switzerland, or approximately ten times more insects than plants! In addition to their spectacular diversity, insects have a significant impact on our environment and daily lives.
On this website, we regularly publish insect news from all fields of research. Let yourself be inspired!
