Classification - Identifying bugs

The scientists at Landcare Research have put together a website that allows you to identify insects that you find out in the garden or on field trips.

Your task - find 5 insects and identify using the guide below. Remember to keep the insect alive and return to where you found it. It is easier to identify using the actual insect but if you prefer you may take a photo.

In your books draw and name the insect along with any interesting note you may find
