Some details: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koziu%C5%82kowate Official name: Koziułkowata komarnica or Koziułkowiec and comes from Tipulidae family. Olbrzymia muchówka - you can use as an unofficial name, while describing it

Tell me you have koziułkowiec at home and I'll ask you to show me a picture. It's a kind of giant "komar" and that's the way I describe it. Make it long-legged "komar" and i'll still understand what are you talking. That koziukowiec-thing is too scientific.

I didn't see this thread taking off in a big way ;) ;) In Silesia, they say kopruch for komar. Male mosquito.

Kapusta: Polish for "crane fly" or " daddy long legs" Seanus: In Silesia, they say kopruch for komar. Male mosquito. Crane fly looks similar to a mosquito but it's not a mosquito as some people may think. It's muchówka and the Polish proper name as stated above
