Likely larva of common eastern firefly, but it’s the first time I’ve noticed one of these, so I’m not totally sure. Found several inches down in damp garden soil.

anita363Descrição
Lucidota atra is a day-flying firefly that glows as a larva -- and as a pupa, obviously! -- but not as an adult. (Don't ask my why! What is is glowing for, if not in order to find a mate?) Found it in decaying leaves while gardening. Looks pretty far along, & in fact I observed adults in the area the following day.
8.7 mm long (measured in this position, not uncurled).
