Investigating the Diverse World of Underrepresented Arthropods
I have traveled all around the US to look for ants and have taken pictures along the way for my last investigation. But during this investigation I wanted to emphasize on other insects. In particular I have always been interested in those insects and arthropods which people knew very little about. This lack of knowledge may be due to their lack of representation in books, literature, or classes, but it often has more to do with the insects themselves. When we, as humans, infrequently encounter something, we tend to consider it rare, but that can be false depending on the scenario. In this case, many arthropods aren't as large, noticeable, or easy to find as the ones we know about. And sometimes, it could just be that the creature is nocturnal.
