Like several of the other fields that are categorized within zoology, entomology is a taxon-based category; any form of scientific study in which there is a focus on insect-related inquiries is, by definition, entomology. Entomology, therefore, overlaps with a cross-section of topics as diverse as molecular genetics, environmental archaeology, behavior, neuroscience, biomechanics, biochemistry, systematics, physiology, developmental biology, ecology, morphology, and paleontology.
Over 1.3million insect species have been described, more than two-thirds of all known species. Some insect species date back to around 400million years ago. They have many kinds of interactions with humans and other forms of life on Earth. For example, species such as ''P. pyralis'' conduct bioluminescent reactions in their light-emitting organs, which have been the subject of much research, especially in recent years.
