CZU Scientists Launch Search for the Common Glow-worm. The Public Is Invited to Help with Mapping

Community mapping under the title “Prague Is Looking for Glow-worms” is now getting underway in Prague, intending to find out where these glowing beetles thrive best in the capital city. Scientists are inviting the general public to help collect data by sharing their observations via the iNaturalist platform or the project’s Facebook profile. This year, entomologists are focusing on the common glow-worm, a species in which only the flightless females glow. “Without high-quality information on their occurrence, we cannot prevent the decline not only of glow-worms, but of organisms in general,” says project leader Martin Novák from the Faculty of Environmental Sciences at CZU in Prague.
