An insect belonging to the order Hemiptera and family Cicadidae. Found throughout Japan, Sakhalin, and the southern Kuril Islands. It is a medium-sized cicada with a body length of 38-43 mm from the wing tip. Most of the body is yellowish brown, with a greenish head and thorax and black markings. The wings are transparent except for the black-brown wing veins. In Hokkaido and the Tohoku region, they live from plains to mountains, but in other regions they are often found in beech and Mizunara forests at altitudes of 700-1500 meters. Adults appear from late May to July, and their call can be heard as "myokin, myokin, kekekeke...".
