这是世界上最大只的蚊子吗？专家抓到了超大只的昆虫，比手掌还大

Nobody likes being bitten by mosquitoes - certainly not by this one.

没有人喜欢被蚊子咬吧，至少不希望被这只咬吧

An insect expert claimed to have caught the world's largest mosquito with an astonishing 11.15cm (4.4in) wing span - about 10 times longer than that of an average mosquito.

The massive insect was caught on Qingcheng Mountain in south-west China's Sichuan Province.

The mosquito was discovered by Chinese entomologist Zhao Li during a field inspection in August, 2017.

2017年8月，一位昆虫专家在田间观察时，发现了一只据他称是世界上最大只的蚊子，该蚊子的翼展达11.15厘米，大约比普通蚊子长10倍

这只蚊子是在四川青城山抓到的。

不是蚊子，也许是吃蚊子的昆虫

不是蚊子，是盲蛛，英国叫“长腿老爹”。

5年后就能看出区别
