Definition
Plural of hexapod; referring to multiple six-legged arthropods or insects.
Etymology
From 'hexapod' + '-s' (plural). Simple pluralization of the noun form, used frequently in scientific and general discussion of insects.
Kelly Says
When scientists count animals, hexapods are so numerous that they often skip them in population surveys because there would be quadrillions to count—we'd need new number names just to describe how many insects share our planet.
