Glow Worms in az

[youngbuck]

I was near Christpher Creek Friday night, and I saw something I've never seen before, a glow worm. I'm not sure if thats what they are called though. It was tan, about a 3/8 of an inch long, with a green glowing end on it that was about a 16th of an inch. Anybody else ever seen them. It was pretty neat to see. Does anybody know how rare they are?

I had a friend that said he saw them on his regular trips to big lake.

 

I know Green glowing things is something you see a lot around smallville

Saw them while packing out a friends bear in the Blue Wilderness till about 2:00am back in 2000. We stopped to take a breather & he said he saw some green glowing worms, I told him he was nuts & that heat & exhaustion must be getting to him. I laid back on a rock & turned out my head lamp, it was then I realized they were every where. They looked like inch worms that would just light up & then turn off. I have no idea what they are called ,but it was pretty cool. I haven't seen any since then. Does anyone know what they are called?

Thanks, Mark

I've seen them in the catalinas and other places. I don't know the scientific name, most people call them glow worms. You can probably look them up on the internet for more info. I do a lot of night work surveying for owls and I still don't see very many of them, so I don't think they are all that common.
