Insects or Insecta are hexapod invertebrates and the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Definitions and circumscriptions vary; usually, insects comprise a class within the Arthropoda
Dragonflies can be mistaken for the related group, damselflies, which are similar in structure, though usually lighter in build. Although not as rich as many countries, Cuba counts with 8 families and 67 species of Dragonflies on the Island.
