Identification: Wings extending beyond abdomen; cone ending in a sharp, down-turned point, prominent gap separating cone from face. Length 47-62 mm for Florida specimens; 44-54 mm northward.
Habitat: Poorly known. Juveniles may feed and develop on grasses. Males sing from trees and from woodland undergrowth.
Season: Adults mature in late summer or fall and do not become reproductively active until Mar.–May (peninsular Fla.) or Apr.–May (N. Car.). Singing occurs later on the Florida Keys (Apr.–July) than elsewhere, possibly as an adaptation that allows juveniles to avoid the spring dry season; "
