Superb Cicada

Tibicen superbus

Notes:

One is a florescent green color morph. I've heard of this. Very excited to find it. NOTE: both were found already completely dead.

Hey Jakubko, I'm working on the Rare Colour Morph mission. Based on my research of these two species listed here neither fit into the criteria. Would you confirm please? thanks, Larry

Could you upload a photo of the browner cicada to have a focus on Tibicen resh, and label this spotting as Tibicen superbus? This way the two different species of cicada will appear as separate datapoints. Thank you!

The very green one is another species, not a form of the same species. Fantastic find!!
