Hey guys, this is an info graphic for class tomorrow, I could really use some critique!
Please note I had to size this down a -lot- so the text is hard to read.
Thanks for the help!

Make the text darker and maybe a texture in the background (a suble one) just to make it look less gradient filled. The flow of the images is kinda broken up at the bottom as it's the only place they don't connect. I'm not sure if you did that on purpose since the last one is death though, but something to take note of if you hadn't. Also maybe chuck a white stroke on the title words so they don't blend into the leaves so much. Also I'd personally probably chuck the scientific name in, but I doubt it's actually necessary >__>
Otherwise it's looking pretty good :D I love the colour scheme and all your graphics. Are they all vector based or did you just do them nice and cleanly like that?

I love the layout and composition. I feel like it flows well. The style of illustration is appropriate for the information you're presenting, too. :)
I personally have a problem with the visual hierarchy of your information blurbs. The Egg:/Pupa:/Etc subheads are the same color and typeface (as far as I can tell) and it just sort of makes my eyes miss that indicator even though it's bigger. I still feel like it could stick out more. Try putting the subheads in a different color or typeface. I think readability would increase tenfold. :) Perhaps you could use the sans-serif typeface from the header at the top.
Also, I have a problem with the heart graphic. It's cute and clever, yes, but doesn't fit with your other illustrations. All of the other ones have a wealth of details while the heart just feels bland. I just feel like it sticks out, but not in a good way. Is there a way you could keep the heart shape, but maybe make it out of the two heads of the moths and their antennae make a heart shape, or maybe you could play with the moths' wings to make them form a heart together? I dunno, just some ideas. Overall, I think this is an awesome piece! I love your header. Maybe depending on the print size, bump up the size of the "Lifestyle of the.." Just for readability's sake. Just seems a bit small even though I realize you're sizing it down insanely to fit onto FA.
I love seeing design work on here. <3

Beautiful work. You use the word lifecycle, could this design be made circular? I'm not sure if that would work any better though as it flows nicely already.
I agree with Baskerville in that the heart graphic seems a little out of place.
However, the colour scheme is pleasing, it's informative, and the eye is led down through the information and images very nicely. It's great!

God I love silkmoths. I tried breeding Lunas and Cecropias a couple times- and damn do those bastards eat a lot! I did this thingy for an art class a while back- look on the right, see anything familiar?
