Dog-day Cicada

Dog-day cicada (Tibicen canicularis) nymphal skin in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on August 18, 2021. Before a cicada becomes an adult and sheds its skin it tries to find a plant where it attaches itself with its claws. Many times their nymphal skin will remain attached to a plant long after the cicada has hatched. (Photo by Creative Touch Imaging Ltd./NurPhoto)
