“…The genus Cicadetta has historically been a catch-all taxon (reviewed in Moulds, 2012) and gradually species are being removed or revised as additional morphological, molecular and/or bioacoustics studies are conducted (e.g. Lee et al, 2002;Lee, 2008;Moulds, 2012;Qi et al, 2015).…”

Molecular species delimitation is increasingly being used to discover and illuminate species level diversity, and a number of methods have been developed. Here, we compare the ability of two molecular species delimitation methods to recover song-delimited species in the Cicadetta montana cryptic species complex throughout Europe. Recent bioacoustics studies of male calling songs (premating reproductive barriers) have revealed cryptic species diversity in this complex. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses were used to analyse the mitochondrial genes COI and COII and the nuclear genes EF1α and period for thirteen European Cicadetta species as well as the closely related monotypic genus Euboeana. Two molecular species delimitation methods, general mixed Yule-coalescent (GMYC) and Bayesian phylogenetics and phylogeography, identified the majority of song-delimited species and were largely congruent with each other. None of the molecular delimitation methods were able to fully recover a recent radiation of four Greek species.

“…Here, we observed interspecific differences in thermal responses between C. atrata and H. fuscata, in which the warmer the habitat, the greater thermal responses C. atrata exhibited compared to the other species. This disparity can be explained by variation in species geographical origins: C. atrata originated in subtropical regions, whereas H. fuscata originated in tundra regions 35 . Additionally, segregation in microhabitat niches may contribute to how each species utilizes its habitat for thermoregulation.…”

Not all cicadas increase thermal tolerance in response to a temperature gradient in metropolitan Seoul

Rapid anthropogenic alterations caused by urbanization are increasing temperatures in urban cores, a phenomenon known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect. Two cicada species, Cryptotympana atrata and Hyalessa fuscata (Hemiptera: cicadidae), are abundant in metropolitan Seoul where their population densities correlate strongly with UHI intensities. Such a positive correlation between cicada density and UHI intensity may be possible if cicada abundance is linked to a certain thermal tolerance. We tested this hypothesis by investigating variation in morphology and thermal responses of two cicada species along a thermal gradient in Seoul and surrounding areas. The morphological responses were measured by metrics such as length, thorax width and depth, and mass. The thermal responses were measured in terms of minimum flight temperature, maximum voluntary temperature and heat torpor temperature. First, we observed a species-specific variation in thermal responses, in which C. atrata displayed a higher thermal threshold for maximum voluntary and heat torpor temperatures than H. fuscata. Second, a positive association between temperature conditions and body sizes were displayed in females H. fuscata, but not in either conspecific males or C. atrata individuals. Third, C. atrata exhibited similar thermal responses regardless of habitat temperature, while H. fuscata in warmer areas showed an increase in heat tolerance. In addition, H. fuscata individuals with bigger thorax sizes were more heat-tolerant than those with smaller thoraxes. Overall, our research is the first to detect a variation in thermal responses and body size of H. fuscata individuals at a local scale. More investigations would be needed to better understand the adaptation mechanisms of insects linked to UHI effects.Temperature is one of the most important abiotic factors affecting daily activities and the life history of cicadas 1-6 . As temperature directly dictates chemical rates and metabolic processes in vivo, a habitat with fluctuating temperatures could drive insects to manage the high energy costs of maintaining body temperature, T b , within a certain range to coordinate reproductive activity 4 . The surrounding conditions may also have an effect on reproductive success and mortality 7-10 . If so, cicadas should select favorable thermal conditions to obtain optimal body temperatures via behavioral-or physiological mechanisms 4,11 .The urban heat island (UHI) effect, in which increased temperatures are associated with urban areas, is a ubiquitous consequence of microclimatic perturbation 12 due to human activities and energy consumption, along with modification of landscapes and urban geometry [13][14][15][16][17] . Elevated temperatures in urban environments are regarded as detrimental as they reduce plant photosynthesis capability 18 and biological diversity 19,20 . Nevertheless, for urban herbivorous insects such as cicadas, such warm habitats may prove advantageous. First, post-morphogenesis development of cicada eggs require a large degree o...

Advertisement calls of some cicadas are so loud that they are a nuisance to city-dwellers in Korea. We hypothesized that the densities of cicada species were directly correlated with the availability of host plant species. We conducted complete enumeration surveys of exuviae in Hyalessa fuscata, Cryptotympana atrata, Meimuna spp., and Graptopsaltria nigrofuscata in three representative habitats in Republic of Korea: metropolitan, suburban, and country. We measured resource-weighted density of each species based on the area and the number of trees, and used those values to calculate organism-weighted density, which measures the intensity of competition that an individual experiences sharing its host with others of its own species. H. fuscata was the dominant species in all three habitats. H. fuscata and C. atrata comprised a minimum of 75.2% of all cicadas across all habitats and sampling periods. Resource-weighted densities of H. fuscata and C. atrata were much higher in the metropolitan habitat than in the country habitat. Habitat was a significant factor for variations in organism-weighted densities in C. atrata and G. nigrofuscata, but it was not in Meimuna spp. and H. fuscata. Some of the results concerning the percentages of trees without exuviae and preferred plants seemed to support the host availability hypothesis in C. atrata, Meimuna spp. and G. nigrofuscata, but they may not in H. fuscata. The similarity between resource-weighted and organism-weighted densities suggests that factors other than host availability, speculatively abiotic factors and predators, may also account for the patterns of population densities in C. atrata and G. nigrofuscata.
