Predatory Mosquito

The Predatory Mosquito sucks plant sap and nectar, not blood. Their larvae are predator of other mosquito larvae.

 

This one appears to be a female as it does not have the plumose bushy antenna and was on the inside of a drum we collect water in. This drum is also a breeding ground for other mosquitoes therefore her larvae should have plenty to eat.
