Fireflies…! A childhood magic…a miracle…that we have seen in childhood sitting on some tree and twinkling, sometimes we have locked them in a stick box, we played with their light, or have seen them in marathi movies- Katyar Kaljat Ghusli, all these things are very mesmerizing.

Nature has given the philanthropy, of light to them. At some forest tourist places, particular trees covered with billions of fireflies looks like a heaven on earth. Very few researchers have published their work on fireflies. Hence there is always a question in mind that how many types of there on earth, where does they go after first week of June, what is the logic behind their tail light etc. Hence author tried to answer these questions through this manuscript.
