Do you know any other invertebrates that can fly? (;
Class: Insecta
I’m so diverse you can find me in…
Marine Environments
Deserts
Rain Forests
Terrestrial Environments
My favorite activities are…
• Flying
• Metamorphosis
• Camouflage
Special Advancements
• Only invertebrates with the capability to fly
• Complex methods of communication
• Metamorphic cycles (complete and incomplete)
Special Structures
• Antennae
• Three fairly independent body sections (head, abdomen, thorax)
• Exoskeleton
• Compound eye
Ideal Mate
• Small in size
• Specifically male or female
• Bilateral symmetry
• Ability to fly
