Rare mosaic lyric cicada
Found in downtown Olathe, KS by my daughter and I, Bailey and Jeff. The only blue is found at the base of the wings. Normal eyes and color except for that. AI said it is a mosaic genetic mutation. INaturalist skipped over it like it was nothing. I've been handling cicadas here since 1994. I've seen numerous species. Nothing like this!
