Seriously though, "mosca" means fly. So a mosquito is literally a small fly.

There is also the next step up. A "moscón".

That's those fat drone flies that keep bumping into your window over and over again because they can't fly to save their lives. Also slang for a gross dude that won't stop hitting on someone.

These get less cool as they get bigger, I'm afraid.

Don't forget about the mother of them all, la mosca cojonera.

La mosca, it's a fly.
