Are you asking what insect live IN the river - like.... aquatic insects?
or
are you asking what insects live in the Amazon River jungle?
either way...
a full list will be so huge that we won't fit it on this page and I don't think anyone really know all the insects that live there. There would probably be hundreds if not thousands species not discovered yet.

Most of them are very normal but quite large as there is no winter to kill them off. I have Sean a earth worm that was 3/4 in in diameter and about 1 yard long. I have Sean butter fly es that have a wing span of 11 in. Tarantula that was 12 in across. The jungle in Ecuador is very dangerous ,every thing bights and stings and if the jungle don't get u the fungus will.

I dont think you need them listed, since there is no way that we know the total number or names of the insects. Go here http://www.freshwateraquariumplants.com/amazonbiotope/amazonriverfacts.html and read if you like. The Amazon is amazing. Did you know that it pushes its sedement 400 miles off the coast... of Africa. The Mississippii only pushes its sedement 200 miles off the coast of the US.
