Description:  Dobson flies are recognized by their hyaline wings and their large mandibles that often serve as pinchers. These mandibles are smaller in females but can become quite large in some males Adults live near aquatic areas but may be attracted to lights at night. Larvae are aquatic and are commonly used as bait by fishermen.

Insect Museum of West China
— -- The largest recorded aquatic insect in the world was found in China.

Measuring at eight inches in wingspan and with a giant set of mandibles at its head, the flying dobsonfly is roughly the size of an adult human face, according to the Insect Museum of West China.

Some other large insect facts: dobsonflies do not typically grow to be larger than five inches in width, according to the Missouri Department of Conservation. The mandibles in male dobsonflies can make up for half of their size.

Male dobsonflies are harmless but the females have a pair of pincers that can cause painful bites to humans. Neither the males or females are venomous.

Adult dobsonflies typically live up to one week.

Botulinum Toxin Injections for Blepharospasm. Botulinum toxin injections may be administered at various sites, as depicted in the image. The dosage varies depending on the severity of the blepharospasm and apraxia of eyelid opening at each specific point. Pretarsal injections are administered to specifically counteract apraxia of eyelid opening. Injections just lateral to the lateral nasal wall aim to alleviate the squeezing of the nasalis muscle, which is observed in some patients. Injections into the corrugator and procerus muscles reduce the downward movement of the brow, consequently aiding eyelid control. Injections just below the brows provide a chemical lift to the brows, thereby improving the ability to open the eyelids. Caution is warranted to inject a minimal amount over the zygomaticus major and minor muscles to prevent the appearance of lower facial weakness following injections. Contributed by BCK Patel, MD, FRCS
