		Magicicada are so well-synchronized developmentally that they are nearly absent as adults in the 12 or 16 years between emergences.
		Magicicada population densities are so high that predators apparently eat their fill without significantly reducing the population (a phenomenon called "predator satiation"), and the predator populations cannot build up in response because the cicadas are available as food above ground only once every 13 or 17 years.
		Female Magicicada produce timed "wing flick" signals in response to male calls, and the timing of this signal in relation to the male call is species-specific for species of the same life cycle.

	Periodical Cicadas (Magicicada spp.)
		Most broods are small and unbroken and cover parts of one or a few states, although some are expansive and cover significant portions of the country.
		Although the cicadas are not at all good at evading predators, the number of adults which appear simultaneously makes it virtually impossible for a serious dent to be put in the population by predation.

	Sexual behavior in North American cicadas of the genera Magicicada and Okanagana
		Chapter 3 is a brief examination of "seminal plugs" in Magicicada.
		Seminal plugs do not prevent future mating attempts, but I suggest that they may be the products of antagonistic coevolution between females who are time-limited and males who can reduce threats to their paternity by imposing time-costs on females’ future mating attempts.
		This chapter documents the signal in different Magicicada species and also describes a bizarre effect (behavioral bisexuality) of a fungus disease in males, as well as a specialized, competitive signal males use to "jam" the acoustical signals of interloping rivals.

	Magicicada Ovipositing
		Magicicada females such as this, may lay between 400 to 600 eggs.
		Groups of female Magicicadas converge on many branches and begin their egg laying frenzy usually a couple of weeks after the first emergence.
		This female Magicicada is preparing to stab her ovipositor into a branch.

		The three Magicicada species are easiest to tell apart by their calling songs, although physical and habitat differences can help in identification.
		Magicicada species choose broadleaf deciduous woody plants for egg-laying, avoiding conifers, sumacs, and other plants that produce large amounts of resins in response to injury.
		Cicadas infected early in an emergence develop asexual fungal spores that render the animal sterile and cause the back of their abdomens to fall off, exposing a white mass of spores that infect other cicadas before the carrier dies.

		And the chorus I remember hearing there best matched Magicicada tredecassini, which happens to be the loudest and most abundant of the three 13-year species.
		This is the largest, and second most abundant species, Magicicada tredecim or "decim." Satisfied that we're at "ground zero," we settle into a motel for the night.
		Another difference I notice between the Magicicada and the annual cicada is that an individual male periodical cicada is not nearly as loud as an individual annual.

		Magicicada adults have striking red eyes, orange wing veins and long lives.
		The 17-year Magicicada is expected to appear in north Georgia in late April or early May. Nymphs emerge when the soil temperature inside the exit tunnel of the soil gets above 64 degrees Fahrenheit.
		The only harm a Magicicada may cause is to the trees it feeds on or lays eggs in.

		Each synchronized periodical cicada emergence was thought to contain up to three species: 13-year Magicicada tredecim, Magicicada tredecassini and Magicicada tredecula; or 17-year Magicicada septendecim, Magicicada cassini, and Magicicada septendecula.
		Magicicada neotredecim is divided into two major geographic groups that emerge in different years; thus, although Magicicada neotredecim last emerged in 1998, another population will emerge in 2002.
		Study of Magicicada neotredecim and its interactions with other similar species provides valuable information about this unique species complex, the mechanisms by which life cycles change, and the ways in which populations of the same life cycle become asynchronous.

		Tymbals are the paired ridged membranes on the abdomen of the male cicada, genus Magicicada.
		Most cicadas have 2-8 year cycles, but this year there are 4 species of Magicicada emerging after 13 years and 3 after 14 years.
		But in northeast America, these species of Magicicada have so synchronised their life cycles that not a chirp has been heard out of them these last 12 or 16 years.

		Although it is possible that a few cicada species have non-feeding adults, I have observed cicadas of many genera feeding, and as far as is known, all adults have mouthparts.
		Whether adult cicadas feed primarily to maintain water balanace or to obtain nutrition is largely unresolved.

		It's a fungal infection that becomes active once the Cicada emerges from the ground and eventually causes their abdomens to pop exposing a white chalky substance within and leaving the Magicicada sterile.
		At this point if a male Magicicada is infected with this fungal parasite, it can no longer mate and depending upon the extent of the damage, no longer call for a female.
		If the male Periodical Cicada mates prior to the infection taking hold, that is early after the molt process, the infection is transmitted through sexual contact.
