[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Polish]
Insects in the family Tipulidae are commonly known as crane flies. Adults are very slender, long-legged flies that may vary in length from 2–60 mm (tropical species may exceed 100 mm).
Numerous other common names have been applied to the crane fly, many of them more or less regional, including, mosquito hawks, mosquito eaters (or skeeter eaters), gallinippers, gollywhoppers, and jimmy spinners.
At least 14,000 species of crane flies have been described, most of them (75%) by the specialist Charles Paul Alexander. This makes the Tipulidae the largest family of Diptera.(Wikipedia)

Witaj cysorzu (masz klawe życie?)
A cóż to za owadzie porno? Też myślę, że to koziułka. To taki wielki komar, a w rzeczywistości nieszkodliwy. Znakomita ostrość.
Pozdrawiam

Małgorzata
