Insects first appeared around 480 million years ago during the Ordovician period. Fossil evidence suggests that they evolved from primitive arthropods and became abundant in terrestrial environments by the Devonian period, roughly 400 million years ago. Their diversification has continued ever since, making them one of the most successful groups of organisms on Earth.
