Firefly larvae

Lamprigera sp

Spotting Image 1

Description:

about 2",

Habitat:

tropical forest

Notes:

I spotted a few different types of millipedes in Nam Nao National Park, all different colors. This is the black one, the others were red and white. Turns out I was wrong, this isn't a millipede at all.

BTW, those trilobite beetles are wild! Can't wait to see one of them in the wild some day!

Thanks achmmad. I don't think it's a juvenile trilobite beetle but while searching that I found the firefly larvae which I think is a match. Cindy was on the right track. What do you think?

I guess this one is juvenile of trilobite beetle, or probably different species http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/636...
