Insects (ISSN 2075-4450) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal of entomology published by MDPI online monthly. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications related to the biology, physiology, behavior and management of arthropods as well as their interactions with human societies, plants, and ecosystem services. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
