Unexpected Periodic Cicada Emergence in PA - June 18, 2016
Magicicada septendecim Emergence
A surprise emergence at Lehigh Gorge State Park and surrounding area brought researchers and cicada enthusiasts to Jim Thorpe, PA to map and observe the emergence. It was reported by experts that this may be a disjunct brood from Brood XIV and not part of Brood V, which was emerging at the same time in other states. Hopefully the puzzle will be solved in the future by the experts.

Sometimes the end of the branch will break if there are too many females ovapositing in the same branch |

Many male Magicicada septendecims gathered together on this tree and created a chorusing center. |
This tree is showing a lot of flagging by the female Magicicadas. |

Two females were found with the Massospora Fungus. This is an STD in cicadas that is passed on during mating. |
