Unknown cicada from Arizona - Diceroprocta swalei - Male
Molino Canyon Overlook, Santa Catalina Mountains, elev. ~4,000 ft., Pima County, Arizona, USA

I know, I know, I should have measured it...Body length roughly 25 mm? Slightly smaller than "average" for cicadas in my experience.

Likely another Diceroprocta
Great pic's!
There are several small Tibicen species in that region also.

However, I think this is a D. swalei. The infuscations, though paler, and the overall body coloration are strongly suggestive!

If you ever come a cross dead or dying examples, closer examination of the actual specimen(s) would be very helpful.
