Excerpt from Among the Pond People
But if you should see a very large, black bug with fore legs which open and shut like jack-knives - then keep away from him, for that is Belostoma. Some time you may see him under the electric lights in the city, for he likes to sprawl around there, and you can look at him on land, but let him alone.
