Insect Behavior Review Articles 1997 (3328 words)
Photuris is one of the difficulties taxonomist have had to overcome when using this method.
Photuris generally have larger populations than their prey species and observations of capture rates are low which contributes to this theory (Lloyd, 1990).
Therefore, Photuris species generally do not possess a discrete response to conspecific courtship patterns and response latency is not as important in their own courtship as in other fireflies (Vencl, 1994).
