Brood II (17-year)
This map is intended to portray only an approximate, present-day brood distribution.
It is based on previously published maps (Marlatt 1923; Simon 1988) and unpublished data.
However, it has not been field checked, and it does not portray historical reports of brood emergences.
A project is currently underway to make new maps of periodical cicada broods.
