Category talk:Insects

I'm unsure if I should include arachnids in this article (Pider and Spinthra) or insect like creatures (Slug and Sworm). Also I've been wondering if Fuzzys are insects (they produce webs and have some resemblance to bugs) -- Sir Grodus

No Pider and Spinthra, they're arachnids, as you said. Your call, though.

Also, how about Buzzy Beetles? Monty Mole 18:47, 6 September 2006 (EDT)

No, I don't think Buzzy Beetles would really fit, cu'z despite the name they seem more like turtles and have skeletons (Bony Beetle) which insects do not have. -- Sir Grodus

Mm. I suppose. I don't think Fuzzies would fit either, becuase they're just little bouncing fuzzballs that just happen to suck HP. Monty Mole 19:09, 6 September 2006 (EDT)

I don’t understand why this is a subcategory of “crustaceans”? Insects aren’t crustaceans. I feel like it should be made a distinct subcategory of arthropods. Fritzrick

Recent fossil/molecular evidence proves that insects evolved from the crustacean group, making them crustaceans themselves. It just needs to catch up in popular conscience, like the similar "birds are dinosaurs (and thus, reptiles)" thing has. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 11:06, May 2, 2024 (EDT)
