The quest describes it as a firefly, but if you have herbalism, tracking with "find herbs" will show their locations on the minimap.

Description
Certain fish are only attracted to bright lights. The forest north of here is home to a local pandaren firefly called a suncrawler. You should be able to find them on the base of the tree trunks all around that area. Bring me back a handful of them and I can use them for bait!
