Insects may gather in modest groups, like the dozen sawfly larvae feeding on a pine needle, or they may form huge masses, like a swarm of migratory locusts or a cloud of mayflies. Why they assemble and what they get out of their associations are questions considered in this look at the group behavior and social lives of a wide array of bugs.
