Cicada Orni
''Cicada orni'' is a species of cicada belonging to the family Cicadidae, subfamily Cicadinae and the genus ''Cicada (genus), Cicada''. The genus name comes directly from the Latin ''cicada'' meaning "buzzer", while the species name ''orni'' possibly comes from ''Fraxinus ornus'' (Manna Ash or South European Flowering Ash), where this cicada often lay its eggs deep in branches. Description The adults of ''Cicada orni'' reach approximately in length, with a wingspan of about . The cryptic coloration of the body varies from brown to gray. The abdomen has reddish segments and a silky pubescence. The head shows large and prominent eyes far apart on the sides, three small eyes (ocelli) located on the top, very short Antenna (biology), antennae and a long proboscis used for feeding on sap.

Cicada Cantillans
The cicadas () are a superfamily, the Cicadoidea, of insects in the order Hemiptera (true bugs). They are in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha, along with smaller jumping bugs such as leafhoppers and froghoppers. The superfamily is divided into two families, the Tettigarctidae, with two species in Australia, and the Cicadidae, with more than 3,000 species described from around the world; many species remain undescribed. Cicadas have prominent eyes set wide apart, short antennae, and membranous front wings. They have an exceptionally loud song, produced in most species by the rapid buckling and unbuckling of drumlike tymbals. The earliest known fossil Cicadomorpha appeared in the Upper Permian period; extant species occur all around the world in temperate to tropical climates. They typically live in trees, feeding on watery sap from xylem tissue, and laying their eggs in a slit in the bark. Most cicadas are cryptic. The vast majority of species are active during the day as adu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
