Wing-worms are large flying insects.[1] They have five eyes, a large mouth with mandibles, and a large, bulbous body with four front legs and four wings.

Wing-worms attacked the Pejitei Brig along with several Royal Yanmas, eventually contributing to its crash.

In Japanese this is "Ushiabu", the name of a large biting cow-fly. The insects are also referred to as "Hamushi,"[2] from the Japanese for the family of insects known as Leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae).
