![]() ![]() Many Fungus Gnat species actually feed on fungus (as their name implies). However, unlike the Arachnocampa worms, not all glow-worms eat other insects. While these are the coolest and most referenced glow-worms, there are also many other species of insects that emit a glowing light when they are in their larval form. Glowworms in Waipu Cave Why Do Glow-worms Glow? The larval glow-worm simply reels each captured insect to its mouth, and dinner is served! The larvae of this species develop into large flying insects. As the insects fly into the tangled mess of sticky fly-traps, they inevitably get tangled up. In the dark caves where these insects live, even these small points of light can attract many insects. Using bioluminescent molecules in their body, they emit light from their abdomen – meant to attract insects! (Hence the genus name “arachno” – meaning spider.) These insects are amazing because they suspend sticky strings of slime all-around their nest. Most commonly, when people say glow-worm they are referring to one genus of Fungus Gnat ( Arachnocampa) that emits a blue/green glow in the larval form. Glow-worms include species from 4 different beetle families and several genera of Fungus Gnats. Glow-worms are a fascinating type of animal! In fact, “glow-worm” is a common name for many different species of insects that glow using bioluminescence.
