Best Answer

All insects are edible to something. Given that, there are 300,000-400,000 described species of bettles and 100,000-125,000 of bees, wasps, and ants. Therefore, there are 3 to 3.2 times more beetle species currently known.

However, bees, wasps and ants species are being described at a rate of 1196 per year, while 2308 species of beetles are described. Thus, only 2 times as many more beetles are described each year, thereby bringing the total species balance to somewhere between 2 and 3.2.
