Tibicen pruinosus (nr. winnemanna ?) - Neotibicen pruinosus
Tibicen pruinosus 2.2
Tuscumbia, Colbert Co., Alabama
2 Males LEFT
2 Females RIGHT
coll. M. Reynolds (w/ B. Reynolds & G. Reynolds)
Cicadas from this population seem to share some traits with the more eastern T. winnemanna (i.e. fulvous margins to the 2nd abdominal segments, as seen in the males & some slight bowing to the costal vein,... a trait seen in T. winnemanna and referenced/mentioned by Davis). Additional studies are needed to fully understand the interactions and relationships between Tibicen pruinosus and Tibicen winnemanna.
I'd like to thank my brother and his children for their time and efforts collecting and takinig notes on the cicadas in their area.
