Crane flies are a type of fly in the family Tipulidae. They are insects. Crane flies look similar to large mosquitoes. Unlike mosquitoes, crane flies do not bite people or animals. There are about 4,000 different kinds or species of crane flies. This means that the Tipulidae (crane flies) are the largest group of flies. Most crane fly species (75%) were found by Charles P. Alexander. - from Wikipedia
