This tag refers to the small, [[glowing]] insects that can be seen at night. Images under this tag should mostly have the insect visible.

This tag can be also used to refer to single glowing balls or streaks used to represent a firefly.

For images in which there are numerous glowing ball or streak effects without showing the actual insect, use the [[fireflies]] tag instead.
