Hello bug lovers and welcome to another episode of Arthro-Pod! Today, we're going to the world of mites, specifically, we will talking all about the pyemotes itch mite. This teeny tiny biting pest has been making a splash in the news recently, with lots of people in Chicago and other Illinois city's complaining about their painful nibbles. We'll talk all about the seemingly mysterious origins of the oak leaf itch mite, how entomologists in the US were first introduced to it, and why it's making headlines in 2024. Tune in, we don't bit even if the mites do!Itch mites in action, photo by Steve Jacobs, Penn State. Show NotesMike talked about elm zig zag sawfly in our Catching up part of the podcast. If you want to learn more about the pest there is an upcoming webinar presented by Penn State University.

Rose Pest Solutions' Marketing Director Janelle Iaccino, A.K.A. ‘The Bug Girl,’ joins Wendy Snyder (filling-in for Lisa Dent) to explain how the 17-year Brood X cicada emergence might be tied to a number of bug bites reported in the Chicagoland area.

Every 17 years in the eastern United States, a roaring mass of millions of black-bodied, red-eyed, thumb-length insects erupt from the ground. For a few glorious weeks the periodical cicadas cover the trees and the air vibrates with their chorus of come-hither calls. Then they leave a billion eggs to hatch and burrow into the dirt, beginning the seventeen year cycle all over again. Sing. Fly. Mate. Die. This is Brood X or the Great Eastern Brood. It's an event which, for the residents of a dozen or so US states, is the abiding memory of four, maybe five, summers of their lives. In a programme that's both a natural and a cultural history of the Great Eastern Brood we re-visit four Brood X years....1970, 1987, 2004 and 2021…. to capture the stories of the summers when the cicadas came to town. Princeton University's Class of 1970 remember the cicadas' appearance at their graduation ceremony, during a time of student unrest and protest against the Vietnam War; a bride looks back to the uninvited - but welcome - cicada guests attending her wedding; a musician recalls making al fresco music with Brood X; and an entomologist considers the extraordinary life cycle of an insect which is seems to possess both great patience and the ability to count to seventeen. Brood X cicadas spend 17 years underground, each insect alone, waiting and listening. In 2021, as Brood X stirred and the air began to thicken with the cicadas' love songs, we all shared with them that sense of emerging from the isolation of lockdown and making a new beginning.Featuring: Elias Bonaros, Liz Dugan, Anisa George, Ray Gibbons, Peter Kuper, Gene Kritsky, Gregg Lange, David Rothenberg, Gil Schrage and Gaye WilliamsProducer: Jeremy GrangeCicada audio recorded by Cicada Mania and David RothenbergProgramme Image: Prof. Gene Kritsky
What does a bird think when it sees billions of cicadas flying around? Lunchtime. More than just a nuisance, periodical cicadas are an important player in the forest ecosystem. A 2023 study published in the journal Science, found that 80 species of birds started eating cicadas instead of caterpillars during the Brood X emergence, which had an effect on trees where the caterpillars live. Reset learns how the current eruption of cicadas affects the forest ecosystem, and the ripple effects we could be seeing for years to come. We talk to ecologist Zoe Getman-Pickering and Karen Weigert, director of Loyola University Chicago's Baumhart Center for Social Enterprise and Responsibility.

The cicadas are back for some fun in the sun, and this time, they're louder than ever! For the first time since 1803, Broods XIII and XIX will be emerging at the same time, covering the American South and Midwest with trillions of cicadas. As Smithsonian entomologist Floyd Shockley readies his nets for the biggest bug invasion in centuries, we look back at the emergence of Brood X in 2021, and explore how cicadas have captivated our human ancestors for millennia.

Hello friends! It's been a while! We've been on hiatus while the kids have been busy with various school and personal obligations, but we're looking forward to putting out a new episode in May! In the meantime, please enjoy this rebroadcast of our cicada episode. Although this one is about Brood X, you'll still find lots of similarities with the two new broods of cicadas emerging across the US right now.

COP28 Host Had Plans to Promote Oil and Gas, Documents ShowThe United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP28, began this week in Dubai. This is an annual event, where leaders and delegates from around the world come together to discuss how to collaboratively reach important milestones for the future of the planet. Goals like slowing the rise of temperatures on Earth will require buy-in from all major players to be successful.But this week, a document leaked that showed the United Arab Emirates planned something at odds with the event: promotion of the oil and gas industries. This has led to increased skepticism of COP and its goals among both critics and attendees.Ira is joined by Tim Revell, deputy US editor of New Scientist, to talk about this story. Plus, how a single bitcoin transaction uses enough water to fill a swimming pool, the way nutrients in soil drive biodiversity, and how amino acids could be formed alongside stars.Researchers Detected Cicada Emergence With Fiber-OpticsIf you were in the eastern United States during the summer of 2021, you likely heard the incessant, whirring buzz caused by the mass emergence of Brood X periodical cicadas. That event, which occurs once every 17 years, brought forth countless cicadas to shed their skins, mate, lay eggs, and die. But it turns out their arrival wasn't just something that you could witness out the lawn or against your car windshield. The sound of their emergence was something that could be detected by fiber-optic cables.Dr. Sarper Ozharar, a researcher who studies optical networking and sensing at NEC Labs in Princeton, New Jersey, has worked on techniques using fiber-optics to sense the vibrations of things like traffic, sirens, and gunshots. Loud noises produce vibrations that subtly distort optical “backscatter” within a glass fiber-optic cable. Using AI, researchers can decode those vibrations and determine what, and where, a noise may have occurred near the fiber.In the summer of 2021, Ozharar and colleagues detected an unusual frequency signal in their test data. With the help of entomologist Dr. Jessica Ware of the American Museum of Natural History, they eventually determined that it was the whirring of the cicada swarm. Their find is the topic of a report published this week in the Journal of Insect Science.Ozharar joins Ira Flatow to talk about how fiber-optic sensing works, and how an electronics and communications lab ended up publishing in an entomology journal.

Well Josh has been talking about comics since the beginning of this movie podcast, so it was only a matter of time before he hounded one of his favorite writers Joshua Dysart (writer for Harbinger, Goodnight Paradise, Unknown Soldier, Swamp Thing, Brood X and much more), to record an episode. Jesse tried his very best to join the recording for this week but for crazy fandom reasons that only a true fan of the arts would understand, Josh sabotaged him. Don't worry Jesse fan, he will return in another episode.This episode we get a feel for Dysart's taste in action and horror in general. His knowledge on the genres is truly impressive. Then after that we dig into the Abel Ferrara classic, Ms. 45. Trigger warnings for anyone not comfortable with movies that depict sexual assault. It's an important aspect of this story.Being a comic book nerd the episode will fall weave in and out of that medium, and we hope it'll entice you to check out some of the books mentioned in this episode. They're all work a read.Most importantly the two Josh's of this episode will figure out the most important question on everyone's mind... is Ms. 45... A BLOODY GOOD FILM!And remember...

Hello, this isWild Suzhou.Today, we will betalking about Brood X, also called Brood 10, which is a group of cicadas thatwill be emerging in North America this year, 2021.First, what is sospecial about Brood 10, and what makes it different from other species ofcicadas? Usually, cicadas have life cycles that are 2 to 5 years long. They areunderground for most of their lives until the weather gets warm and adultcicadas emerge to breed. Brood 10 has a 17-year life cycle.Brood 10 is justone group, however. There are around a dozen other broods, but Brood 10 will bethe one emerging this year. The last time this group emerged was in 2004, 17years ago. Brood 10 is part of a North American genus of cicadas, known asMagicicada. They are unique among cicadas since their life cycles are 13 or 17years long, which is much longer than the typical 2 to 5-year life cycles ofmost cicadas. Of the 3,000 species of cicadas, there are only 7 species ofthese so-called “periodical cicadas”.No one reallyknows why Brood 10 and related species do this, but we do know how they manageto be consistent with their 17-year life cycle. Cicada nymphs live undergroundand they feed on the liquids from plant roots. Most cicadas will mature fasterand emerge more frequently. Additionally, they don't emerge at the same time.Periodical cicadas, all mature at the same pace and therefore emerge at thesame time. They do this by counting the seasonal pulses of liquids that flowthrough the plant roots they feed on. Once they finish 13 or 17 cycles, theywait until the temperature is right and they emerge all at the same time.For Wild Suzhou,I'm Ciana, thanks for listening and see you next time.
This week I spoke with singer-songwriter Leona Naess who recently released an album titled Brood X after a family of periodic cicadas that, like her, reemerged in 2021 after 17 years underground. In the years since she released her last album in 2004, Naess had lived her own life “underground”— nesting, becoming a mom, and moving through the grief of losing both parents. Released in 2021, Brood X has themes of reemergence and rediscovery. In this conversation we talk about how she got into the music industry young with her hit song Charm Attack, the music industry in the 90s, processing grief, being cool vs. warm, and more.

Remember the buzz about--and from!-- Brood X cicadas last summer? That phenomenon prompted On the Record producer Melissa Gerr to explore the powerful feelings associated with awe and wonder, and how they affect us. She talked with an astrophysicist, a naturalist, a spirituality researcher and also with David B. Yaden, Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine working in ‘The Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research'. One of his experiences of awe, he said, came from thinking about vastness: “That vastness can be perceptual, like looking out on a large expanse like the Grand Canyon, or it can be conceptual, like when you imagine the magnitude of the size of the galaxy.” Links: The Goethe Institut's Big Ponder listening series. *Originally produced for the Goethe Institut's The Big Ponder transatlantic listening series.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Singer-songwriter Leona Naess made her name in the early 2000s on warm, radiant, lyrically-driven indie rock, earning a wide range of rave reviews. In those years, Naess was living in the historic Chelsea Hotel and had put out three records in quick succession between 2000 and 2003. Naess' diverse musical past also includes time studying music composition and even singing onstage as a child with her then-stepmother, the legendary Diana Ross. Midway through making her new album in 2021, Naess read an article detailing the upcoming emergence of Brood X, a family of cicadas due to emerge along the East coast of the United States for the first time since 2004—the same year she'd last released an album. The same year she met her now-husband. The same year her father passed away. And in the intervening years, Naess had lived her own life “underground,” nesting, preparing for motherhood and growing her family. After 17 years, birthed from a kit of remarkable vulnerability, honesty, and strength, Brood X (via MessyNaess Records/distributed through AWAL and co-produced by Max Cooke) is an album of rebirth, reemergence, and rediscovery. In this episode, we discuss the emergence of a new project after years in the making, the wisdom gleaned from several years in the music industry, keeping your art and work honest, and the merging and balance of work, motherhood and real life. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ongoingness/support

Written by Alex Morales Narrated by Colleen “the queen” Lex CoreNet Global's the LEADER magazine, November 2021 Like in so many places across the U.S., summer of 2021 was announced by the symphonic celebration of cicadas that, for 17 long years, were patiently colluding within the earth's caverns before announcing their virtuosity in our parks and green spaces. The cicadas that have made so much noise – literally with their raucous reaching up to 100 decibels, and figuratively as they managed to capture a sensational buzz across various news media – are part of the largest generation of periodic cicadas known as Brood X. The next time we will see these winged torpedoes will be in 2038. By then, the world will look very different.

How Vampire Bats Evolved To Drink Blood Vampire bats subsist solely on blood: In technical terms, they're what's called “obligate sanguivores.” And the three species of vampire bats are the only mammals to have ever evolved this particular diet. Living on blood is hard work. Blood is a low-calorie food with a lot of water volume, and very little of it is fat or carbohydrates. To survive this lifestyle, vampire bats have made numerous physical adaptations—stretchy stomachs, tricks to deal with high amounts of iron, even specialized social systems related to sharing food. But how, genetically, did they manage it? Guest host John Dankosky talks to Dr. Michael Hiller, co-author on new research published this week in Science Advances looking at some of the specific genes vampire bats lost in order to gain these unique abilities. Difficult Brain Science Brings Difficult Ethical Questions In recent weeks, we've told you about efforts to explore and map the human brain through tissue donations, and the troubling tale of a bionic eye implant startup that left users without tech support. The two stories point to different aspects of the rapidly advancing field of neuroscience—and each comes with its own set of ethical questions. As humans advance in their ability to understand, interpret, and even modify the human brain, what ethical controls are in place to protect patients, guide research, and ensure equitable access to neural technologies? John Dankosky talks with neurotech ethicist and strategist Karen Rommelfanger, the founder of the Institute of Neuroethics Think and Do Tank, about some of the big ethical questions in neuroscience—and how the field might try to address the challenges of this emerging technology. The Brief And Wondrous Lives Of The Cicada The Staten Island Museum in New York has been home to the eye-catching room full of insect art since 2021's emergence of the Brood X cicadas. In bell jars and cabinet drawers and under glass display cases, colorful cicadas from species around the world participate in scenes of human-like activities—they read miniature books, arrange dried flowers, create textile art, converse with animal skulls, lounge on and in jelly jars, and more. It's all part of artist Jennifer Angus' exhibition “Magicicada,” an homage to our reliance on the insect world. Producer Christie Taylor talks to Angus and Staten Island Museum entomologist Colleen Evans about the wonder of insects. Plus, how art and science can complement each other and teach even the most bug-shy visitor to appreciate the natural world.

Americans on the East Coast were in awe when Brood X, an enormous group of 17-year cicadas, suddenly emerged from underground to mate. Melissa Gerr, who lives in Maryland, was no exception. Inspired by this local wonder, she sets out to explain the feeling of awe.
In this episode we talk with Dr. Gene Kritsky, who has authored or edited 10 books and over 250 papers on subjects as diverse as entomology, Egyptology, evolution, history of science, dinosaur biology, insect poetry and insect mythology. The Tears of Re: Beekeeping in Ancient Egypt is one of his Egyptology stories in a book, and Periodical Cicadas: The Brood X Edition was released this spring, just before Brood X began singing their mating songs (at up to 90 decibels at their peak) in the Eastern US this spring. He is the Dean, and a Professor in the department of Behavioral and Natural Sciences in Mount St. Joseph University in Cincinnati, Ohio. In this incredible interview, he weaves all of these things together and ties them all into his love of bees and beekeeping. We start with a discussion of the Brood X cicadas this spring, and his new book about them, but wander in and through the history of developing the timing of all of the Broods of cicadas that exist, how are they related, and do they harm bees in anyway. Long ago he read Eva Crane's book on the history of hives, and that started his exploration of, and a book about, In Search of the Perfect Hive. As a Fulbright Scholar, he traveled to Egypt to teach entomology, and there he really got involved in their beekeeping styles, government's role and organization. He relates stories on Egypt's history of bees and beekeeping, hive styles, and yes, there has been honey found in Pyramids that is thousands of years old that is still edible. His definition of “beekeeping” is the intentional prevision of an artificial container in which bees can produce. Have you ever thought you would use the words “Insects” and “Mythology” in the same sentence? Gene does. He knows museums and can direct you to the sections that cover all of these subjects. Dr. Gene Kritsky is one of the most interesting stories we've told. Come along for the ride.

Seventeen years ago Rob was a newlywed, teaching high school, driving a two door car, and living in an apartment in the Court House neighborhood of Arlington, Va. A lot has changed since the last emergence. Rob and his family live in Rutherford, Virginia. The neighborhood was a dairy farm until the middle part of last century. The neighborhood was established in the early 1960s. Not much has changed with the local environment since the past three emergences. In small world trivia Dan Davala's wife's aunt used to live in Rob's house. We all waited eagerly to see the first bugs. Anglers tying flies and discussing tactics on Internet forums. Those with entomophobia cursed the bugs and stated their disdain for them before the first nymph emerged. Rob has tied over 1,300 cicadas since March and now offers them in green. The green version is called the cicatydid. This is Rob's account of his third emergence recorded over several weeks. The preparation, fly design and development, selling and fishing the flies, and the fish that ate them. Warning, the bugs are VERY LOUD. You may want to turn down your volume.

Some Native observers, however, see a feast. Insects are a source of protein many tribes traditionally utilized. […]

Hello Listener, In this bonus episode, we chatted with local university legend, entomologist, professor emeritus Dr. Mike Raupp, about the Brood X periodic cicadas. The Great Northern Brood is emerging from their seventeen-year slumber to feast, socialize, and reproduce. Dr. Raupp answers our questions about what distinguishes this brood from our annual dog-day cicadas, how do they know when to come out of the ground, and what if anything we need to do to protect our garden plants from them. We hope you enjoyed this month's episode and will tune in next month for more garden tips.
