Geography
Photuris frontalis occurs in isolated, distinct sub-populations and is found across much of the Eastern United States. It is locally abundant in some places, particularly within several State and National Parks where its mating displays are a growing tourist attraction.[2] It can be found from cypress wetlands in Florida, to semi-xeric pine-oak-hickory woodlands in Delaware.[3][4][5][1]
