Since some major reclassification at the class level was done several years ago, I've noticed a few different lists of class Insecta on various websites. Lacking dates, I'm not sure which is truly the latest classification. Does someone know where to find the definitive source for classification of orders these days?

Wikipedia actually has a good overview of insects including their evolution and phylogeny and a classification which includes some recent revisionary works with references. Whether it's the most current and up to date classification I couldn't say but worth a look.
