Quality and star rating both affect the sale price. MAX-size catches have a glowing aura.
How to catch Firefly
Use the Insect Net. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.
- Equip the Insect Net and approach the creature at eye level or on the ground.
- Most insects can be caught with a simple net swipe; slow down if the species is skittish.
- Check tree trunks, flowers, shrubs, crops and aerial spaces — the habitat column tells you where this species spawns.
First catch: the creature is added to the Omnidex. Offer it to Mors at the Omni-Gallery to put it on display and unlock its Omnipedia entry.
Where and when to find it
Habitat: Aerial. Distribution: All Regions.
Season: Year-Round. Time: Nighttime. Weather: Any Weather. If two of those tags are restrictive, check the creature tracker before you set out.

Cave Zone · Pyrocoelia formosana Olivier
Fireflies can control their luminosity by regulating the air entering their bodies.
When they sense danger, they will turn off their "lights" and "lie low."
