The Life Cycle of The Fireflies Species (Pteroptyx Tener)

Life Cycle



The Egg


The Larva



The Pupa


The adults fireflies of Kampung Kuantan are easily seen at night because of the beautiful flashes of light they produce. However, very few people are likely to realise what the firefly is like before it matures into a winged adult. In fact, one may be surprised to find out that this insect is a formidable predator in the early stage for its life. 

The life cycle of the firefly begins with mating. An adult female firefly may mate more than once in its lifetime. Once it has mated, it is ready to lay fertilised eggs. The eggs are laid among the vegetation that grows on the riverbanks and are usually hidden in crevices in the soil.
