What living thing has the most species?

Answer 1

I did not honestly think I could find an accurate answer for you, but I did. There are about 30 different phyla. Phyla are groups of animals sharing the same body type. The 9 largest phyla contain the majority of the animal species of our planet. The arthropods, which contains insects, Spiders, etc. is made up of about 75% of the animal species. There are more than 900,000 arthropods known and according to some may be as many as 5 million total different types of this particular phyla. the number for all known animal species NOT including arthropods is around 250,000. The most diverse insect within the arthropods are the beetles. There are more than 375,000 identified. Next would be butterflies and moths with over 100,000 different types. Some other phyla estimates are vertebrates 50,000, fish 20,000, birds 8,700, reptiles 6,000, mammals 4,500, and amphibians 2,500. Within the mammal phyla rodents are the most prevalent with 35 different families of rodents at 1,700 species.
