Backswimmer
The Backswimmer is a true bug that can be seen swimming on its back in ponds and still water. It is a predator on other pond life and any insects that fall in the water. It has a paralyzing bite that can incapacitate their prey. They can cause a painful bite to people if handled. They swim about using two paddle-shaped legs for locomotion and using their forelegs to grasp prey.
