I think there are more than just one Chupacabra, really. I know it sound a little silly, but I think there is just some creature that we just haven't really got the chance to identify and list as a species. There have many accounts of the same in places all over the world. The Chupacabra(s) Live!!

Grew up on an Ohio, USA dairy farm.  My dad is now into raising beef cattle.\n\nI hear Argentina is well-known for its beef farms.

Clothing (wool), meat, bookstores/publishing houses, restaurants/food, tourism.  \n\nArgentina is a beautiful country, with many different landscapes to explore, so tourism is a major industry there.  And tourism makes other industries grow there: restaurants and clothing, for example.  Argentinians are well-known in South America as good readers, so it would be interesting to open bookstores or even a publishing house there.  And it is the land of meat - sheep, cows and others.

That would be absolutely impossible to answer with an exact number.  First, if you mean insect species, there are many that are undiscovered.  If you mean absolute total number of every insect, well, I don't know that anyone could even come close to a real estimate, let alone an actual number.

In the US,insects can be identified by the Dept. of Agriculture,the Department of Natural Resources ,and by the UW Extension Offices.\n\nGood luck to you.\n\n~Z~

Argentina comes from the Latin word "argentum" which means silver, and it was frist used by Ruy Díaz d Guzman in 1612 when he described the area surrunding el rio de la plata (river of silver) as Tierra Argentina (land of silver)

Hmmm...wow...a VERY general question.  This is out of my field, but your other questions were so engaging I decided to see what else you have asked...\n\nFor the first one (how do they thrive/what modifications do they have). I am going to list things insects all have in common and that kill them when things go wrong with these systems:\nQ1:\n1) A chitinous exoskeleton, usually with a waxy covering that conserves water and provides mechanical protection.\n2) A system of spicules that enables oxygen/CO2 exchange without having to resort to an overly flexible out membrane keeping that mechanical protection sound. \n3) Segmented bodies and legs to allow greater flexibility of movement than is achievable solely with a segmented exoskeleton\n4) Wings for flight or additional mechanical protection\n5) Rudimentary circulatory system (this one might not qualify since I bet their ancestors had something like this too.)\n\nQ2:\nThere are a LOT of kinds of neoptera and I don't know much evolutionary biology so I will not attempt that one. Probably one trend has to do with the falling partial pressure of oxygen over the past few hundred million years and the guys getting smaller to cope. They all have flexible wings.  I dunno what else.  Sorry.\n\nQ3:  Compare flies to butterflies/moths/skippers.\nCommonalities: all 4 wings have flight function; larval stage that pupates; adults have tubular mouth parts\nDifferences:  antenna, scaled wings. \nThat is a start anyway. \n\nQ4:  Similarities: Chitinous exoskeletons, segmented bodies (but different numbers of segments), jointed legs, \nDifferences: wings vs. more legs, compound vs. simple eyes, pupation/metamorphosis vs. nymphal stages\n\nQ5:  Ecto means outside, and everyone know what parasitic means, so this would include lice, fleas, maybe mosquitos (they only suck blood for egg laying, you know), certain kinds of flies and true bugs.  They mostly live on blood, but I think some eat dead skin.  Geez, what else CAN you eat living on the outside of a critter?\n\nWhew.  Tough.

I don't think anybody will be able to pin it down to one specific insect species, because first, how do you measure smartness, and how do you compare it between species, which show very different behavior. \nAs far as complexity of behavior and brain size is concerned, I think the social insects as a group will be smarter than the non-social ones. Being social adds a whole new repertoire of behavior due to the need to constantly interact with nestmates versus non-nestmates. In addition, social insect species have a home - which they have to find again!\nSocial insect behavior range from dance communication of honey bees, to pheromone communication of ants, pathfinding in ants, individual face recognition in some wasps species. \n\nAs far as specific sources are concerned, there are many papers published, below a link to a random one which came up when I typed in "learning memory insect". You will be able to find thousands more.

From Link 1 :\n\nThe largest living insect species, by virtue of having the greatest visible body mass and probably weight, are the giant scarabs, Goliathus goliatus, Goliathus regius, Megasoma elephas, Megasoma actaeon, and the immense cerambycid, Titanus giganteus. No clear winner can be declared on the basis of objective data, the candidates being nearly equal in this regard, but a visual comparison of all of them, side by side and scaled to maximum known size, may convince one otherwise. The heaviest weight reliably reported for any insect is 71 grams for the protected giant weta, Deinacrida heteracantha, of New Zealand.\n\n\nFrom Link 2 :\n\nThe Heaviest Insect: A Goliath Beetle from tropical Africa, weights in at 3 1/2 ounces.\n \nThe Heaviest Water Insect: The Giant Water Bug of South America, tips the scales at nearly two ounces.
