May 26, 2021 Brood X, one of the broods of periodical cicadas that spends 17 years underground as nymphs, began to emerge in the Eastern United States in May 2021. Billions, perhaps even close to a trillion cicadas will emerge as part of the 2021 emergence of Brood X (10). In this video, Smithsonian Entomologist Floyd Shockley teaches us about these cicadas, their special adaptations and life cycle and unique things about their natural history that you may not have known. Floyd joins us from the National Museum of Natural History, where he shows viewers live cicadas and cicadas preserved in the Smithsonian's Entomology collection.
