Phantom Wing Cicada
The White Ghost Cicada, Ayuthia spectabile, is a hauntingly beautiful insect named for its pale, almost translucent wings and spectral appearance. This elusive cicada is most often found clinging silently to tree trunks in shaded forests, its chalk-white body blending seamlessly into bark and lichen. When in flight, its gossamer wings glint subtly in the light, adding to its ghost-like mystique. Unlike the deafening calls of other cicadas, the White Ghost is known for its quieter presence, making sightings a rare and ethereal experience in the wild.
Frame Dimensions: 9" X 7"
