WELCOME TO FIREFLY
GLOWING, GLOWING, GONE. FIREFLIES LIGHT UP OUR YARDS ON HOT SUMMER NIGHTS, AND MANY OF US HAVE CHERISHED MEMORIES OF THEM. BUT FIREFLIES ARE DISAPPEARING ALL OVER THE COUNTRY—AND ALL OVER THE WORLD. A RESOURCE FOR FIREFLY LOVERS—AND SCIENTISTS Firefly.org is a website with two missions: to support firefly research and conservation, and to spread the message that firefliesneed our help.
WHY ARE FIREFLIES DISAPPEARING? Like Fourth-of-July fireworks, cool swims on hot days, and lazy vacations, fireflies are a sign of summer. Many of us have cherished memories of spotting and catching them during warm summer evenings and running through fields that sparkled as if strewn with stars. But there are signs our kids may not grow up with the same fireflymemories we had.

NUMBER OF SPECIES
In North America, there are an estimated 170+ species. Worldwide there is estimated 2000+ species. These numbers are going up as new Lampyridae species are described by scientists.FUN FACT
WHY BLINK?
The purpose of blinking is so that male fireflies can find potential mates. If you watch long enough you will be able to pick up on their unique flash pattern. Try to remember it so that next time you see a firefly flash you can identify it.* LEARN
