The Lampyridae are a family of insects in the beetle order Coleoptera. They are winged beetles, commonly called fireflies or lightning bugs for their conspicuous use of bioluminescence during twilight to attract mates or prey. Fireflies produce a cold light, with no infrared or ultraviolet frequencies.
This phenomenon is called bioluminescence, and the bioluminescent organs in fireflies are found on the underside of the abdomen. A similar group of organisms are glowworms. The term âglowwormâ can refer to firefly larva or wingless adult femalesâsome of which are not in the firefly family Lampyridae.
