This is a interesting species because it breaths through that tube in its butt. It grabs its pray with its front legs then secretes a liquid that turns the insides of its pray to liquid. It then sucks out that liquid as food.
Giant water bug, also known as toe biters. The family is Belostomatidae, hopefully someone can narrow it down a bit more for you :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belostomati...
