Stick insects, also known as phasmids, vary widely in length depending on the species. They can range from about 2 inches (5 cm) to over 12 inches (30 cm) long. Some of the largest species, like the Giant Stick Insect, can even exceed this length, making them one of the longest insects in the world. Their elongated bodies help them blend into their surroundings, providing camouflage against predators.
