Insects, the most diverse group of organisms plays a major role in ecosystem function. The present survey was aimed to prepare a checklist of insects found in and around our college campus since there was no known published checklist of insect in Christian college campus till date. Therefore, this is the first study which reports the abundance and distribution of insects in the Christian college campus, Kattakada, Thiruvananthapuram. In this study, a total of 599 individual of insects from 14 orders were collected.
