Present study was carried out to study insect diversity and influence of abiotic factors such as temperature and humidity on insect population at Lawrence garden, Lahore from January 2009 to June 2009. Higher number of insect species was observed in Order Lepidoptera (17 species), Diptera (15 species), Hymenoptera (14 species) and Coleoptera (13 species). It was also revealed that increasing temperature and humidity from January to March positively affected the number of insect species but from April to June gradual decrease in humidity with increasing temperature reduced the number of insects. Similarly insects with chewing mouthparts were more abundant in the Lawrence Garden as compared to other insects.
