Queen Alexandra's Birdwing, is the largest butterfly in the world. They can span their wing very long, especially the female ones upto excess of 25 cm(9.8 inches), a body length of 8 cm (3.2 inches) and a body mass of up to 12 grams (0.42 oz),. Its scientific name is Ornithoptera alexandrae , was named by Walter Rothschild in 1907, in honour of Alexandra of Denmark.
2. ATLAS MOTH
The Atlas Moth is often considered as the largest moth in the world in terms of their wingspan area.
Their wingspans are also among the largest, reaching over 25 cm (9.8 in). Females are appreciably larger and heavier than the males. Its scientific name is Attacus Atlas and is said to be named after either the Titan of Greek mythology, or their map-like wing patterns.

4. TITAN BEETLE
You may have seen many beetles, but this one is Neotropical Longhorn Beetles, the only one in the genus Titanus and one of the largest knwn beetles, with the largest reliable measured specimen being 16.7 cm (6.6 in) in length. The body of the Titan beetle is considerably larger than that of the Hercules beetles. Adult titan beetles do not feed, searching instead for mates.

5. TARANTULA HAWK
Tarantula Hawk is a spider wasp, that hunts Tarantula. It belong to the species of Pepsis and Hemipepsis. By using their sting, they paralyzed their prey and drag them to the nest for the larvas to eat them alive.This species are up to 5cm (1.96 inches) long, making them among the largest of wasps, and have blue-black bodies and bright, rust-colored wings.The stinger of a female Pepsis grossa can be up to 7 mm (1⁄4 in) long, and the powerful sting is considered one of the most painful insect sting in the world.

6. GIANT WETA
Giant weta is one of the species of weta in the genus Deinacrida of the family Anostostomatidae.There are eleven species of giant weta, most of which are larger than other weta.Large species can be up to 10 cm (4 in), not inclusive of legs and antannae, with body mass usually no more than 35 g. One captive female reached a mass of about 70 g (2.5 oz.), making it one of the heaviest documented insects in the world[1] and heavier than a sparrow. One example reported in 2011 weighed 71 g. Giant weta are endemic to New Zealand and are examples of island gigantism.

7. CAMEL SPIDER
Camel spider is the species of class Arachinda known variously as sun spider, wind scorpions and solifugae.Despite the common names, they are neither true scorpions (order Scorpiones) nor true spiders(order Araneae) – though they are more closely related to scorpions than to spiders.Most species of Solifugae live in dry climates and feed opportunistically on ground-dwelling arthropods and other small animals. The largest species grow to a length of 12–15 cm (5–6 in), including legs. A number of urban legends exaggerate the size and speed of the Solifugae, and their potential danger to humans, which is negligible.
