The dissection and study of insect anatomy.
From Greek 'entomon' (insect) and 'tome' (cutting). An older term used in the 18th and 19th centuries before 'entomology' became standard.
Early entomotomy revealed that insects have multiple brains—some have a brain in their head and additional nerve clusters throughout their body, letting them function even after losing their head.
