This is a summary table of all insects discovered in A Tale in the Desert 8. Insects are a Resource that serve a variety of purposes, including to learn the Fly Tying skill and for use in Fishing.

In order to find insects, you need to have learned the skill Arthropodology 0 at a School of Worship. There are several stages of Arthropodology, and each level allows you to find more insects at a time. To check your Arthropodology status (and which bug type is missing for the next level), select self>Special>Show Entomology Progress.
