Graptopsaltria nigrofuscata, the large brown cicada, is a species of cicada in the genus Graptopsaltria of the family Cicadidae found across East Asia, including Japan, the Korean Peninsula, and China. They are called in Japanese. The males make a loud chirping that ends with a click caused by a flick of the wings.
Large brown cicadae are usually about 55- long, having a wingspan of roughly 75mm.
Their median life cycle from egg to natural adult death is around three years.[1]
