Hello!

Entomology is defined as the study of insects. An example of entomology is a biology lecture on ants.

Like several of the other fields that are categorized within zoology, entomology is a taxon -based category; any form of scientific study in which there is a focus on insect-related inquiries is, by definition, entomology.

Hope this helps!
