\nA Magicicada is a genus of cicada that lives in the United States that typically emerges in 17 or 13-year cycles depending on the species. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\nA Brood is a numbered group of Magicicada cicadas that emerge in a specific series of years.
\nExample: Brood X (X is the Roman numeral for 10) emerges every 17 years, i.e. 2021, 2038, 2055, etc.<\/p>\n
\nA Straggler is a Magicicada that emerges earlier or later than anticipated.
\nExample: If a Brood XIX (13-year, next due in 2024) cicada emerges in 2022, we can say it is a straggler that emerged 2 years early.
\nStragglers that emerge earlier than expected have also been called “precursors” (Marlatt 1898). I also call them “pioneers”. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
