Arthropoda is the scientific name for the phylum containing arthropods. Insects are in the class Insecta, Spiders are in the class Arachnida. (To be clear both are in different sub-phylums; Mandibulata and Chelicerata, respectively. While Insecta is also in a super-class, Hexapoda, under the sub-phylum Mandibulata. Crustacea are also Cheliceratas.)

The term "genus" is a rank or taxon in biological nomenclature which is above "species" but below "phylum". Since arthropoda is a phylum, it might be better to ask if a particular genus of an organism is under arthropoda. The various genera below phylum arthropoda are far too numerous to list.

You may mean,"What is an insect's scientific name?" It depends on what type of insect it is.
