Definition
Plural of entomologist; multiple scientists who study insects professionally.
Etymology
From entomologist (entomology + -ist meaning practitioner) + -s (plural). This standard plural form refers to the community of insect scientists worldwide.
Kelly Says
Modern entomologists are sounding alarms about the 'insect apocalypse'—insect populations are crashing 75% in some regions, and these scientists are basically watching Earth's pollinator crisis unfold in real-time!

Ethical Language Guidance
Gender History
Plural form carries same historical gender unmarking as singular. Women entomologists in 19th-20th centuries were systematically undercounted in institutional histories and professional rosters.
Inclusive Usage
Use 'entomologists' as unmarked plural for all practitioners. When citing historical work, verify female practitioners' names rather than defaulting to male attribution.
Empowerment Note
Eleanor Vachell (1879-1948) and other women entomologists published extensively on insect behavior but were often published under male colleagues' names or institutional credit.
