The robust cicada (ミンミンゼミ, Minminzemi) is an insect found in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival, Animal Crossing: Wild World, Animal Crossing: City Folk, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It makes a unique sound which is different to other cicadas, which sounds like a series of screaming "Beep! Beep! Beeeeeeeeep!". It is worth either 200 Bells or 300 Bells, depending on the game.

Donating to the Museum

Like all insects in the Animal Crossing series series, the robust cicada can be donated to the Museum by talking to Blathers, who will give some information about it.

In Wild World

"When a female robust cicada approaches, the male will change its call, eh wot? To think that they're mere bugs and they play these mind games... Disgusting!"

In City Folk

"Fittingly enough, the robust cicada can issue a robust, loud chirp...and it does so quite often. I've heard this beastie's impertinent cry so often that I've grown rather good at imitating it. Listen! Chiiirp! CHIIIRP! CHIIir..."

It can be found in the middle terrace, on the front-most tree of the middle island, sharing it with the Brown Cicada.
