Based on the many publications from several decades, we came across many classifications of Insects. Among them which one is more updated and approved classification that can be used for research, academics and teaching purpose?
Thank you.....
Hello Kariyanna; Here is a link to the entomology department of the California Academy of Science. Their collections are carefully maintained and are curated in the most current arrangement. You may want to correspond with one of their curators...Brian Fisher...who is an ant specialist. He may be able to help you.

The most recient is the Book "Insect systematics and principles of cladoendesis", wich is published in Russian in 2020. English version is in preparing. Information about the adopted basic classification is here: http://www.insecta.bio.spbu.ru/z/sys-ins.htm
I have some copies, but probably the easiest way to buy the book is to apply to the editor whose address is given on the website
Dear James Des Lauriers
The classification in that book is accepted by all? Or on what basis it has been classified?
if possible can I get a copy of the book?
Dear Nikita Kluge which books do you have? Related to insect classification?
Hi Kariyanna; I recommended that you contact Brian Fisher. He is the curator of a large museum's insect collection. He might be able to provide you with the information you are seeking - whether it is a book or a monograph. What you want to know is "what standard reference his museum uses". Best, Jim Des Lauriers
