How to approach it
Treat the prompt as a diet question and build a mental map before writing anything down. Walk through habitats in turn, canopy, soil, fresh water, cave and open sky, and ask which residents there depend on small invertebrates for most of their intake. Then widen the net again with behaviour: active pursuit, ambush, scavenging and incidental ingestion all satisfy the wording, so a candidate does not need to be a dedicated hunter. When you have a shortlist, choose the entry you can name most precisely, since a full species label signals that you know exactly what you mean, while a vague umbrella term invites doubt. Check spelling, keep the article out unless it belongs to the name, and submit one well-formed entry rather than several near-duplicates.
Get a hint
Start from the idea of diet rather than habitat: the trait being tested is what an animal actually swallows, so nearly every branch of the animal kingdom is open to you.
A little more
No need for a dedicated hunter; scavengers, water filters and animals that pick tiny prey off any surface all qualify, which multiplies the options far beyond the obvious predators.
One step further
Narrow the shortlist by size and schedule: the smallest, fastest and most nocturnal candidates are usually the ones whose menu is built on insects rather than merely garnished with them.

Why these answers count
The distribution here is unusually lopsided and it says a lot about how the reveal was graded. A single entry took the 100-point slot, which suggests the scorer reserved full marks for one standout pick rather than spreading them around. Almost everything else landed in the 85 band, all 40,589 of them, and that band is populated by precisely named organisms from every corner of the animal kingdom: Bolas spider sits alone at the top, while 15-spotted Money Spider, Aalbu's Cave Pseudoscorpion, Aaron Bauer's House Gecko, Abbott's Tiger and Abdim's Stork all collected 85. The 60-point group of 581 looks different, and the likely reason is breadth: an answer so general that it covers thousands of species reads as the obvious first thought rather than a researched choice, so the scorer discounts it. Rarity alone is not the mechanism; precision is. Naming a specific organism that visibly eats insects proves the connection, whereas a loose category asks the reader to take the diet on trust.
