good night all my steemit friends all over the country, tonight I will share information about an insect that shines at night that is fireflies.
Fireflies are a type of insect that can emit light so clearly visible at night.
Fireflies, can indeed emit their rays to recognize each other or to mate, using different wavelengths of light, depending on the species. In addition, in some species, the first male firefly first shines its light to attract and summon the female, while in other species, too, if the female (summoning) some fireflies use their light to defend themselves. They let out a beam as a sign to the enemy that they are not a delicious meal for a meal.
For the fireflies of the Photurists, their lights play a role in the hunt for the nation. This type of female can mimic the flicker of light signals emitted by other types of females, such as Photuris. With these false light signals, the male firefly type Photuris was trapped and eaten by the female Photuris.
The light of fireflies may also serve as a warning sign, to warn of the same kind as to the danger of the enemy, as well as a warning for insects and birds of prey so as not to eat them. Therefore, the triggering agent for the formation of light firefly was bitter. Even if there is a desperate predator insect, they usually eat the firefly body from the head, just up to the back, except the stomach that will not be eaten by the predator.
