>For other uses, see Green (disambiguation). Green is a color seen commonly in nature. Many plants are green mainly because of a complex chemical known as chlorophyll which is involved in photosynthesis.Green light has a wavelength of roughly 520–570 nm and is one of the additive primary colors. It is the complement of magenta. Many artists, however, continue to use a traditional color theory in which the complement of green is considered to be red.People who are red-green color blind can often distinguish between the two colors but confuse them with other colors, for example, bright green with yellow; dark green with brown.

Insects comprise the most diverse group of animals on the earth, with over 800,000 species described—more than all other animal groups combined: "Indeed, in no one of her works has Nature more fully displayed her exhaustless ingenuity," Pliny exclaimed. Insects may be found in nearly all environments on the planet, although only a small number of species have adapted to life in the oceans where crustaceans tend to predominate. There are approximately 5,000 dragonfly species, 2,000 praying mantis, 20,000 grasshopper, 170,000 butterfly and moth, 120,000 fly, 82,000 true bug, 350,000 beetle, and 110,000 bee and ant species. Estimates of the total number of current species, including those not yet known to science, range from two to thirty million, with most authorities favouring a figure midway between these extremes. The study of insects is called entomology. See more at Wikipedia.org...
