Journal of Experimental Biology
J Exp Biol (2020) 223 (15): jeb225151.
Published: 11 August 2020
...Hamish Richard Charlton; David John Merritt ABSTRACT Arachnocampa larvae utilise bioluminescence to lure small arthropod prey into their web-like silk snares. The luciferin–luciferase light-producing reaction occurs in a specialised light organ composed of Malpighian tubule cells in association...
