Members of the genus Arachnocampa (glowworms) use an unusual predatory strategy: larvae bioluminesce to lure positively phototropic insects into their adhesive webs. We investigated the metabolic costs associated with bioluminescence and web maintenance in larval Arachnocampa flava. The mean rate of CO2 production ( _V CO2) during continuous bioluminescence was 4.38 ll h-1 {\textpm} 0.78 (SEM). The mean _V CO2 of inactive, non-bioluminescing larvae was 3.49 {\textpm} 0.35 ll h-1. The mean _V CO2 during web maintenance when not bioluminescencing was 8.95 {\textpm} 1.78 ll h-1, a value significantly lower than that measured during trap construction by other predatory arthropods. These results indicate that bioluminescence itself is not energetically expensive, in accordance with our prediction that a high cost of bioluminescence would render the Arachnocampa sit-and-lure predatory strategy inefficient. In laboratory experiments, both elevated feeding rates and daily web removal caused an increase in bioluminescent output. Thus, larvae increase their investment in light output when food is plentiful or when stressed through having to rebuild their webs. As light production is efficient and the cost of web maintenance is relatively low, the energetic returns associated with continuing to glow may outweigh the costs of continuing to attract prey.}, keywords = {Bioluminescence, Metabolic rate, Silk, Sit-and-wait predator, Web}, issn = {0174-1578}, doi = {10.1007/s00360-010-0533-3}, author = {Robyn E.
