Brood XXIII of the periodical cicada, the largest brood of the 13-year 
race, will occur throughout the Mississippi and lower Ohio River Valleys from 
southern Indiana and Illinois, and northern Missouri to southern Mississippi 
and Louisiana. 
The best authenticated. records of this brood are from western Tennessee 
and northern Mississippi, although its occurrence is well established through- 
out the remainder of its area. There is also a small and somewhat isolated 
center in northwestern Georgia. 
Following is a list of the records available to t ne Insect Pest Survey. 
Under each State the counties (underlined) are arranged alphabetically and 
under each county the towns are arranged alphabetically. The numerals fol- 
lowing a town indicate the year or years the brood was recorded from that 
town; those after the county indicate that the record was for the county and 
gave no specific town. Counties or towns without dates are from records of 
the brood without any definite year of appearance.
