Most of animals on Earth are arthropods and most of arthropod species live in tropical forests. However, biologists still have not estimated how many of these species live in a single rainforest. A detailed survey of arthropods from the soil to the forest canopy in a Panama rainforest provides us with first answers. A team of 102 researchers from 21 countries had been sampling the rainforest from cranes, inflatable platforms, balloons, and climbing ropes for two years, then taking eight years to sort 130,000 arthropods from their samples. This data set was used to estimate that a 6,000 ha forest in Panama harbours as many as 25,000 arthropod species. Interestingly, a single hectare included >60% of all arthropod species found in the 6,000 ha forest. The diversity of many arthropod groups, even those not herbivorous, depends on plant diversity.
