National Insect Collection

The National Insect Collection is a large, organized repository of insect specimens preserved for scientific study and education. It contains millions of insects, such as butterflies, beetles, and ants, collected from across the country. Researchers use the collection to identify species, study insect diversity, and understand their roles in ecosystems. It also helps track changes in insect populations over time, aiding conservation efforts. The collection serves as a valuable resource for entomologists and educators, providing insights into insect biology and the environmental health of different regions.
