Signaalikadudega, also known as the Signal Firefly, is a species of firefly native to the Pacific Northwest region of North America. It is one of the most well-known firefly species due to its distinctive flashing pattern and the large size of its bioluminescent organs. The species is characterized by its large, elongated body and the bright, flashing lights produced by its abdominal segments.

The Signal Firefly is known for its unique courtship display, which involves a complex pattern of flashing lights. The male firefly produces a series of short, rapid flashes, while the female responds with a longer, slower flash. This pattern is repeated in a synchronized manner, creating a mesmerizing display that can last for several minutes.

Signaalikadudega is typically found in moist habitats such as marshes, swamps, and wet meadows. It is active during the summer months, with peak activity occurring in the evenings. The species is an important indicator of the health of its habitat, as it requires specific environmental conditions to thrive.

The Signal Firefly is a protected species in some regions due to its declining population. Conservation efforts are underway to protect its habitat and ensure the survival of this fascinating species.
