Cicadas Suck - on Roots - Magicicada emergence T-Shirt

Funny Cicada T-Shirt - Cicadas suck on sap from tree roots for 17 long years before emerging (or for 13 if they are of the more impatient species). Magicicada are the unique 13-year and 17-year periodical cicadas of eastern North America. They belong to the taxonomic order Hemiptera. Periodical cicadas are grouped into Broods according to the years they emerge. Brood II also known as the "East Coast Brood" is a group of 17-year cicadas that will emerge in CT, MD, NC, NJ, NY, PA, VA in 2013. The Iowan Brood will emerge in 2014, and the Kansan brood is set to emerge in KS, MO, OK in 2015. 2016 will also be a big year for Cicadas when they emerge Northeast OH, MD, PA, VA, and WV.
