Scissor Grinder
Neotibicen pruinosus
Adults occur in deciduous woods, parks, and tree-lined neighborhoods during the summer. They perch high on trunks and branches, drinking xylem sap through a piercing beak. Males produce a sustained, loud buzzing call with vibrating abdominal organs to attract mates.
