GLOW-WORM
Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
Produced by British instructional films, ltd. "The glow-worm hatches out under a stone, and is at first a long queer-looking grub equipped with a kind of rosette of fingers which it uses for pulling itself up grass stems, or for washing its face and its innumerable legs. The male glow-worm is a handsome winged creature but the female is a plain little grub. She has however, a lamp of phosphorus just above her canopy. The glow attracts the male."
