Some species of Net-winged Beetles can glow in the dark as larvae, like tiny forest lanterns!

The bright red color you see on their wings actually comes from special pigment chemicals, not just simple dye.

Their 'net-wings' are not just pretty; they help make their wing covers strong and rigid for flight.
