dorsal patterns
Many from the east coast are more colorful and patterned than are those form more inland sites. This fact often creates id issues, hence I created a special no taxon category :)

I have an inkling of "no taxon" but don't grok.
I would have put it in Tibicen tibicen tibicen,
but an expert's word has more weight.
Especially considering that this is only my
2nd Cicada, the first seen on the 7th.
