The term periodical cicada is commonly used to refer to any of the seven species of the genus Magicicada of eastern North America, the 13- and 17-year cicadas. They are called periodical because nearly all individuals in a local population are developmentally synchronized and emerge in the same year.
The species' name was Tibicen chloromerus, but in 2008 it was changed to Tibicen tibicen because the cicada was determined to have been described first under this specific epithet. [4] The species was moved to the genus Neotibicen in 2015. [5] N. tibicen is the most frequently encountered Neotibicen because it often perches on low vegetation. [6]
