Fireflies or lightning bugs, despite their name, are actually not flies but soft bodied beetles.

Part of the Lampyridae (lamb-PIER-ri-dee) family, their name comes from the Greek word lampien which means to shine. A very fitting name as these beetles are very much known for the light they emit from their bodies.
