About the Glowworm

A glowworm is not a single kind of animal but any insect larva or wingless female that glows with its own light. The best-known ones are the young or female fireflies, though certain gnats and other beetles glow too. Their cool, greenish light shines out in the dark to signal or, in some cases, to lure prey. Print this glowworm for an evening nature lesson about creatures that make their own light.

  • Glowworm is a common name for several glowing insect larvae and females.
  • Many are the larvae or wingless females of fireflies.
  • Some cave-dwelling gnat larvae glow to attract prey.
