What are lightning off?
Lightning bugs refers to many types of beetles that use bioluminescent flashing to attract women or respond to light flashes caused by men ready to pair. They can also be called fireflies and many other names, but they never call Glowworms. Glowworms are also beetles who use bioluminescence but come from a different family than lighting errors.
Lightning bugs can be found worldwide and includes more than 2000 different species. They are most common in swamps or wooded environments and prosper best in tropical or warm climate. Unripe lightning errors are usually unnoticed and often make their homes under the bark or mud until they are fully ripe. However, it is sometimes possible to see before and adult flashes that make small flashes on the ground.
When the night flashes reach maturity, it is often an amazing sight to see how the air suddenly filled with flashing, flying beetles. Many lightning errors are acting orThe flashes are unnoticed because they are daily. All lightning errors shine when they are in a larval stage, even if they don't get flicked like adults.
The actual flash process is the result of a chemical reaction in the abdomen of lightning errors. They exclude two enzymes called lucifherase and luciferin , which cause small flashes of light in a combination. In some cases, it will be able to produce only one sex. For other species, men trying to connect to send flash signals to women. Females can then react their own flash when they are ready for mating.
What is quite amazing, due to the number of flash mistakes is that each species has its own clear flash. Therefore, lighting errors generally signal or respond to their own species. An exception to this rule is some beetles from light. Procuris leftenebugs Ing actually useBlowns that duplicate the flashing of other species, which brings male flash mistakes ready to pair directly to the woman Photuris. In fact, it uses it for predation and her naive men who respond to her signal.
BUGS Lightning for adults can be fun to watch and do not consider themselves pests. They tend to eat either pollen or nectar, which promotes plant growth. The larvae are likely to eat slugs and snails or sometimes other larvae. This is also useful for people who want to keep slugs and snails from their garden without pesticides.
