What is the biggest mosquito?

Mosquitoes are everywhere here in Cambridge Mass.  Some can barely be seen.  Others are quite big.  Have you seen monster-sized mosquitoes this year?

If you are wondering if the mosquito below is the biggest mosquito, the answer is no.  It is larger than many – one of the largest, in fact.  This photo is of a lowly Psorophora ciliata mosquito, which met its untimely demise indoors.  A male mosquito can live an average of one week inside your home.  Females will find a delicious blood meal in your home, but she will be unable to live long after biting you.  Three weeks at most.
