In contrast, a large majority of the insect species of the tropics and the southern hemisphere are probably undescribed. [11] Some 30–40,000 species inhabit freshwater; very few insects, perhaps a hundred species, are marine. [12] Insects such as snow scorpionflies flourish in cold habitats including the Arctic and at high altitude. [13]
An even higher risk is faced by critically endangered species, which meet the quantitative criteria for endangered species. Critically endangered insects are listed separately. There are 538 insect species which are endangered or critically endangered. Additionally 1702 insect species (28% of those evaluated) are listed as data deficient ...
Between 950,000–1,000,000 of all described animal species are considered insects, so over 50% of all described eukaryotes (1.8 million species) are insects (see illustration). With only 950,000 known non-insects, if the actual total number of insects is 5.5 million, they may represent over 80% of the total, and with only about 20,000 new ...

[1] [2] Of all evaluated insect species, 3.2% are listed as critically endangered ...
