The '''lantern fly'''{{Note|{{Nihongo foot|ビワハゴロモ|Biwahagoromo}}}} is a [[bug]] in the {{SER}} introduced in {{WW}}. It is found on [[trees]] between [[June (month)|June]] and [[September]] at two different times of the evening, between 4 PM and 7 PM then again from 11 PM to 8 AM. It is uncommon and can be found in the rain as well as on clear evenings.

As with all insects in the {{SER}}, the lantern lly can be donated to the [[museum]] by talking to [[Blathers]], who will give a small talk about it.

{{Blathers|WW|The lantern fly drinks the sap of the lychee, whose fluids are said to be sweet. ...The question is, who first sampled the lychee, anyhoo? It looks repellant! It took a gourmand braver than I, I assure you!}}

{{Blathers|CF|It's said that a diet of sap from the lychee tree makes the bodily fluids of the lantern fly sweet. It's also said the proper way to try them is to break off the tips of the horns and sip them like straws... It's ALSO said that anyone who does those things is officially googly-boogly out of his or her mind.}}

The lantern fly can be found in the top-most level of the insect section of the museum, perched on the right-most cedar tree, next to the sign.

Upon being donated, the lantern fly can be found in the room of the bug exhibit with the light in, resting on a tree near the light. The exhibit has this to say about the lantern fly:

''Fulgora laternaria'' (also known as the lantern fly, alligator bug, peanut bug, etc.) is related to cicadas. It gets the name 'alligator bug' from its oddly shaped and colored head. Its head is shaped like a serpent or lizard, similar to an alligator's head, which is mentioned in the description in the ''Bugs and Fish'' tab. The name 'lantern fly' however, comes from the mistaken belief, first by {{wp|Carl Linnaeus}}, that they are luminescent. It protects itself by opening its wings, which reveals {{wp|Eyespot (mimicry)|fake eyes}}. Its head may also further protect itself, by scaring potential predators. In the {{SER|nolink}}, it displays its wings when the [[player]] gets close to it.
