The Brown Cicada is a common insect in the Animal Crossing series introduced in Doubutsu no Mori. It makes a unique chirping sound, which resembles what could be described as a continuous alarm or vibrating sound, rather than the regular chirp. The Brown Cicada can be sold for 200 Bells.

Real-world information
The Graptopsaltria nigrofuscata (large brown cicada) is called tatarakihi by the locals, in their native language, Maori. Much like all cicadas, the brown cicada has transparent wings, small bodies in comparison, and large eyes on either side of their heads. They are considered a pest by farmers because they attack and eat crops. The literal translation of their japanese name (アブラゼミ (Aburazemi)) is Oil Cicada, likely due to the fact that some cultures hear their calls as the sounds of oil sputtering from a frying pan.
