I'm still here in agricultural Palm Beach County. I do a lot of general entomology collecting then have fun trying to identify them.Usually I am at an area called 20 Mile Bend or at the northern entrance of the Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge

Mark, I have observed fireflies in the Big Cypress preserve while driving along I-75 at night. I don't have any proof, but I suspect the decline in firefly populations in more urbanized areas is likely due to pesticide use at night intended for mosquito control. You might find some isolated populations at some of the larger state parks and wildlife management areas, but I agree that sadly they are a rare find these days.

I took a picture of a beetle either molting mating or killing I will send it to the appropriate place if I recieve an email address I live in south Florida.

I took a photo of a large beetle that I found in front of the house the other night. I have looked at many photos on-line, attempting to identify it, with no success. What other resources might you recommend?

I added the above comment and question.

I wish I knew what was happening to the Fireflies in South Florida. I haven't seen one in 25 years. I notice you don't have any photos of any fireflies. Has anyone seen any south of Palm Beach County recently ?? I've got a passion for insect collecting and general entomology. If you are ever in West Palm Beach please stop by and yes we will spend the day in agricultural Palm Beach County collecting. I also spend a week in Leticia ,Amazonas, Colombia each year collecting. I'm a member of (SOCOLEN) Sociedad Colombiano de Entomologia and I go to their annual conference Mark Sivik
