i am only 15 and i an very interested in zoology. I was just in St. louis ( i live in chicago) and at around 8 or 9 i went out to my friends pond with his ocean biologist dad and the dad was going crazy because he has never ever seen biolums in freshwater. we collected samples and i was just researching when i found this site. The organisms we found looked like this lavae
that looks like a scab i just picked off my arm...or was it larva? hmmm
I live in the mountains of western Maine and see firefly larvae quite often. I'm holding one right now. Looks very much like the one in the photo except it is black.
