Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North American Cicadas The original description of C. Grossa by Fabricius in 1775 is very general and would do for many of the large cicadas. He says, how ever, that the tarsi are black. In our insect they are olive green. He also gives the habitat as Brazil, but as Uhler says, this. May be an error. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

They were most common about the middle of June. Mr. Woodgate writes that the "Navajo children tear the legs and wings off of the cicadas and eat them--say they taste like pecan nuts." The species must have been quite plentiful in 1918 in parts of New Mexico, for Mr. Warren Knaus sent me a male and female collected about four miles southeast of Santa Fe, on the old Santa Fe trail on scrub pine and cedar, June 15, at an altitude of about 7, ooo feet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Periodical Cicada, Brood XIV The earliest known publication mentioning the species appeared in 1666, and several accounts were published before 1750. One (g) refers to an appearance at Plymouth, Mass in 1634. The early writers noted the unusual visitations of large numbers of the insects, their emergence holes, the noise made by them, and the damage done to the trees in oviposition. Writers from 1750 to 1775 knew of the periodic appearance and inferred the length of the period to be about 17 years. Later writers were more certain about the period. Linnaeus (g) described the Species in 1758 from Specimens from America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Periodical Cicada Following brie y the history of the insect, the young ant-like larva, hatching from the egg a few weeks after the latter has been laid, escapes from the wounded limb, falls lightly to the ground, and quickly burrows out Of sight, forming for itself a little subterranean chamber or cell over some rootlet, where it remains through winter and summer, buried from light, air, and sun and protected in a manner from cold and frost. It lives in absolute solitude, separated from its fellows, in its moist earthen chamber, rarely changing its position save as some accident to the nourishing rootlet may necessitate its seeking another. In this manner it passes the seventeen or thirteen years Of its hypogeal existence in a dark cell in slow growth and preparation for a few weeks only of the society of its fellows and the enjoyment of the warmth and brightness of the sun and the fragrant air of early summer. During this brief period of aerial life it attends actively to the needs of continuing its species, is sluggish in move ment, rarely taking wing, and seldom takes food. For four or five weeks the male sings his song of love and courtship, and the female busies herself for a little longer period, perhaps, with the placing of the eggs which are to produce the subsequent generation thirteen or seventeen years later. At the close Of its Short adult existence the Cicada falls to the ground again, perhaps within a few feet of the point from which it issued, to be there dismembered and scattered about, carpeting the surface of the ground with its wings and the fragments of its body. Such in brief is the life round Of this anomalous insect. So far as is known, other cicadas appear every year, usually in comparatively small numbers, and this yearly recurrence has led to the belief that the larval existence of these species is much Shorter, if not limited to a single year. In the absence Of direct experimental proof, however, it may be true that all cicadas have a long larval existence, and the absence of well-marked broods in other species or the complete breaking up or scattering of these broods, so that individuals emerge practically every year, have erroneously been taken to indicate a much shorter term of underground life.
