What is the most common bug?
The largest numbers of described species in the U. S. Orders: Coleoptera (beetles) at 23,700, Diptera (flies) at 19,600, Hymenoptera (ants, bees, wasps) at 17,500, and Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) at 11,500. We investigate these questions using whole genome data for representatives of the ‘big four’ insect orders: Diptera, Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera, and Coleoptera. These orders within the Holometabola contain a large fraction of animal species with over a million species altogether.
