Title: Características de las luciérnagas: determinación de la intensidad de emisión luminosa.
Alternate Title: CHARACTERISTIC OF THE FIREFLIES. DETERMINATION OF THE INTENSITY OF LIGHT EMISSION.
Authors: Escobar Mejía, Ignacio1 escobarignacio2@gmail.com

Subjects: METRIC system, FIREFLIES, INSECTS, FEMALES, LIGHTING
Abstract (English): Different characteristics presented by fireflies are studied, such as their taxonomic classification, light production and the luminous units of the International System of Units. Different intensity values found by other authors are analyzed and a simple method to determine it, using accessible equipment available in any basic electronic laboratory, is described. Of a total 154 captured insects, probably 53 were females and produced brightness values equal to 3.6 millicandelas (mcd); 82 insects, probably male, produced values equal to 2.2 mcd. There are 19 other specimens whose uncertain illumination pattern could not be clearly defined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Se estudian las diferentes características que presentan las luciérnagas, comenzando por su clasificación taxonómica, la producción de la luz por los insectos y las unidades de iluminación del Sistema Internacional de Unidades. Se analizan los diferentes valores de luminosidad encontrados por otros autores y se describe un método sencillo para determinarla utilizando equipos accesibles en cualquier laboratorio básico electrónico. De un total de 154 insectos capturados, 53 probablemente fueron hembras y producen valores de luminosidad iguales a 3,6 milicandelas (mcd); 82 insectos probablemente machos producen una luminosidad igual a 2,2 mcd. Se encuentran otros 19 ejemplares inciertos cuyo patrón de iluminación no pudo definirse claramente. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
