高砂熊蟬，這普遍分布於平地和低海拔的物種，是都市裡最容易聽到的蟬鳴之一。夏日夜晚是高砂熊蟬的羽化時段，終齡若蟲從土裡鑽出來，找尋合適的地方羽化。這張是蟬羽化的展翅階段，猶如表演者在舞臺上擺出最後的結束姿勢。羽化結束後，牠將爬上樹頭找尋配偶，展開另一段新旅程。

The Cryptotympana takasagona cicada is widely distributed along the plains and lowlands. It is one of the most common species in urban areas. On a summer night, this last instar nymph dug its way out from the ground. This image shows the cicada spreading its wings, resembling a stage performer in her final pose. After emergence, it climbs into a treetop and searches for a mate. This marks the start of a new journey.
