after 17 years -- sex for days

[joachim]

Hello, I just got a report on TV from Maryland that said 3 species of cicadas hatched. Billions of cicadas.
Enclosed a report from a German radio station. Very interesting.

I am surprised that you say the report claims there are 3 species of 17-year cicadas. I thought there was just one species. Perhaps the other two species do not have a 17 year life cycle?

The article mentions 13 year and others, so that's the "multiple species"
