Cicada Slough of Black Giant Cicada (Cryptotympana facialis) - stock photo
The cicada slough of the Black Giant Cicada (Cryptotympana facialis) is the dried exoskeleton left behind after the nymph transitions into its adult form. This slough, often found clinging to tree trunks, is a light, amber-brown, hollow shell that preserves the intricate details of the cicada’s body, including its segmented abdomen and strong, clasping legs. A common sight in East Asian forests, these sloughs serve as a reminder of the cicada’s fascinating life cycle and the transformative process of molting.
