Mosquito 2 is a breeder and 85 quadratic growth pattern that was found by Nick Gotts in October 1998 . At the time of its discovery, it was the smallest known pattern exhibiting superlinear growth (passing the former record holder mosquito 1 ), but it was surpassed by mosquito 3 a few hours later.
Its size reduction from mosquito 1 comes in part from it having two fewer middleweight spaceships but one more lightweight spaceship .
