Fireflies in southern and eastern Ontario, Canada.
We have lots of them at the cottage, most of the summer.

We don't have a word for them.
Mostly 'cause we don't have 'em.
Besides we have enough to deal with, well I mean just in my back garden we've got Red Back spiders, Funnel Web Spiders (real nasty), Mouse Spiders, a few species of snake (a couple of which are venomous), drop bears, hip-holes and last night we had a scrub turkey pay a visit.
Oh, and I live in Sydney, the biggest city in Australia.
