I have moved the largest beetle photo to the front because the bioluminescent photos while extremely interesting, in and of themselves, do not help identify this click beetle.

Hello! An interesting spotting. Please put the last photo first because the bioluminescent photos in and of themselves do not help identify this click beetle.
