Male fireflies of the species Photinus ignitus attract females with pulses of light. Flashes of longer duration seem to attract the most females. During mating, the male transfers a spermatophore to the female. Besides containing sperm, the spermatophore is rich in protein that is distributed by the female to her fertilized eggs.
