Cicada

Tibicen linnei

Description:

I found this guy on the side walk on my way to work. He was pretty calm, and didn't seem to mind my taking his picture. I wish I had my Pentax to photograph him, but I'm glad I at least had my cell phone.

Habitat:

Toronto... They're everywhere in the city this time of year.

Please compare linnei http://bugguide.net/node/view/32143 with canicularis http://bugguide.net/node/view/12461

Costal margin of wing
Even arci-form wing (=canicularis) vs. strongly bowed (=linnei)
