"What does he say that number should be?"

He didn't say what it should be.  His point was that most of the species they found were natural enemies of the pest ones, and that his research shows that when the overall number of insect species goes down, the overall number of pests...this is not the number of pest species, rather the total number of pest insects...increases and becomes problematic.
