Donating to the museum[edit]
As with all insects in the Animal Crossing series, the lantern lly can be donated to the museum by talking to Blathers, who will give a small talk about it.
In Wild World[edit]
"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!"
In City Folk[edit]
"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.
In New Leaf[edit]
The Lantern Fly resting on a tree in the museum in Animal Crossing: New Leaf
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:
"Lantern flies stay on trees to drink tree sap, which is where you'll most commonly find them. Their heads are shaped like alligators, though this is just an odd coincidence. Their wings have patterns that look like eyes so when they're open they can scare off predators. They don't really cry that much, but they are still related to cicadas to some extent."
