I have always been fascinated by fireflies. So it was with great delight that I heard about the discovery of two new fireflies in Taiwan’s Kenting National Park.
Currently over 2,000 species of fireflies have been recorded around the world. 54 of these can be found in Taiwan.
The new discoveries include one nocturnal species of the genus Luciola and three diurnal species of the genus Drilaster.
Kenting is Taiwan’s oldest national park.
