Lightning bugs find a mate by flashing specific patterns of light. When they pair up, they mate and then the male will fly away. The female, who usually cannot fly, will then lay the eggs in a tree or on some leaves.
Well, if you'd studied them, you'd know.The flashes lightning bugs give are mating calls/signals to opposite gender lightning bugs.Female lightning bugs give off a distinct pattern of flashing lights, to tell the male lightning bug that she is ready to mate, and when a male sees the flashes, he imitates them and goes over to mate with the female.
Communicate, eat and make mating arrangements are the activities of lightning bugs [Lampyridae family] during the night. They tend to be nocturnal. So they communicate and organize their mating by way of their glowing abdomens and their flight patterns. Adult fireflies don't have to eat. But those that do prefer the pollen and the insects that are available once the sun goes down.
