FOREST AND SHADE-TREE INSECTS 
MISCELLANEOUS FEEDERS 
PERIODICAL CICADA ( Tibicen septendecim L.) 
BROOD XIV (SEVENTEEN- YEAR RACE) 
A. I. Bourne (June 23): The 17-year locust has been reported as 
appearing in Pocasset (township of Falmouth) in great numbers on 
June 12. Most of the territory there has been burned over by a 
tremendous wood fire (May 23-26, last) so there is but little under- 
growth and no foliage left. The cicadas are hanging from the dead 
scrub oaks and charred pine branches in vast numbers. Similar 
conditions existed on territory which escaped the ravages of the 
fire. So far I have no complete data on this brood, but from my 
personal observations its range is from near Monument Beach east 
to Sagamore, south to S. Sandwich and west to Pocasset. 
R. M. Lupton (June 7): The periodical cicada is very abundant in 
scuub oak sections on the central part of Long Island. 
Pennsylvania S. Vf. Frost (June 8): Locusts have been emerging in considerable 
numbers in A.dams County, but no damage has been noted. 
Maryland IV. L. McAtee (May 28): Specimens were sent to me for determination 
from Elkridge. 
A. L. Quaintance (June 4): I heard yesterday in the wood on tho 
back part of my farm a few periodical cicadas. I should judge 
there were 10 or 12 of these insects within hearing distance.
