Annual Cicada with Exuvia

This is an image of a winged Annual Cicada and the shed larval skin or exuvia it left behind when it emerged from living underground and metamorphosed into a winged adult.  Annual Cicadas are also known as Dog Day Harvestflies and they are considered the loudest insects on earth.
