A cicada bug also known as a symbol of the song of hot summer days, is seen on a tree in Izmir, Turkey on July 18, 2020. It is known that there are hundreds of different species of cicadas and some of them could live under the ground for 17 years. Cicadas emerging from the soil in a form of larvae, gain wings right after they are peeled from their cocoons. The eggs left by the females in the crevices in the tree branches return to the soil as larvae after a while, and wait for the moment to come to earth. Male cicadas have a special organ called a tymbal that produces sound and they make voices in order to attract the attention of female cicadas in a few weeks of life.

A mason bee deposits its collected pollen in an elderberry stick near Hessen, Germany on March 27, 2020. The food supply is sufficient for the eleven-month development of the brood from the egg to the finished bee. Wild bees are active in March and April and die before their offspring hatch.

The branching antennae and huge torso of the male eucharitid wasp (Pseudochalcura gibbosa) are barely visible to the human eye. Since 2014, entomologists have sampled millions of insects around Los Angeles, identifying 800 species, including 47 new to science. (Photo by Lisa Gonzalez/BioScan Natural History Museums)

Tetragonisca angustula is a small eusocial stingless bee found in central and south American countries. Seen here in Curridabat near San José, Costa Rica. The move to extend citizenship to pollinators, trees and native plants in Curridabat has been crucial to the municipality’s transformation from an unremarkable suburb of the Costa Rican capital into a pioneering haven for urban wildlife.
