This is a closeup of some of the most magical creatures of our planet. The Arachnocampa luminosa (Maori "Titiwai").
The name means "glowing spider-worm" and is a whole new genus of fungus gnat endemic to New Zealand. Unlike common gnat, the Titiwai are predatory. They use silk threads and bluish bioluminescence to capture their prey.
They also look truly magical doing it.
