I concluded that participating in the field research helps gain deep knowledge of the terrestrial diversity and roles offered by the insects. Many insects that I viewed in the field were easily identified using simple identification keys. I also learned that entomologists always investigate insects’ functional traits to solve problems such as deforestation and climate change that are facing the world today. The interactions between the plants and the insects are important to understand since they form the basis for increasing local environmental awareness and conservation.
