Dragonflies mate in a rather unusual manner called the "wheel" (also known as a "heart shape").
The male grabs the female's head with the tip of his abdomen (end of the tail), and she curves the tip of her tail to a higher position on his abdomen. Here he had previously deposited semen from his own tail (the testes) into a secondary receptacle which includes his penis. This organ connects to the female's ovipositor, and the sperm is transferred to the female. (In most cases, the penis is used to first remove sperm left from previous matings.) In many species, the male remains attached to the female as she lays her eggs.
The grasping of the female's head is not always gentle, and can cause severe but seldom fatal injuries.

What is the biggest mosquito?
The largest mosquito is a species called Toxorhynchites speciosus. They grow up to one and a half inches (the females always larger than the males). They are native to Australia and do not bite people/animals and they do not drink blood. Their nickname is "Mosquito hawks", because despite being mosquitoes themselves, they eat other species of mosquito. They also occasionally eat sap, honeydew and the rotting flesh of fruit. They lay their eggs inside a nest which contains the eggs of other mosquito species. When the mosquito hawk eggs hatch, the larvae eats the eggs of the other mosquito species.

Well they do NOT eat Mosquito s, they usually don't eat once adults they just breed and die, if they do eat they eat nectar. As larvae they eat what most larvae do, roots and other vegetation in the soil.
