Neoconocephalus exiliscanorus
The correct spelling of the species name of this insect is "exiliscanorus". The taxonomy page has an incorrec spelling with an extra "c".

Awesome!
Nice images! I remember finding these in Cincinnati, Ohio, but they were not very common, and were synchronous. So, if only one male quit singing, everybody quit! Took lots of patience to track them down.

Coneheads
Thanks Eric. These two weren't to easy to find, but I was waiting for the first males to start singing, before they could fall into a chorus.
