Chremistica ochracea (Walker, 1850) is a species of cicada in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha, which includes cicadas, leafhoppers, planthoppers, treehoppers, froghoppers and spittlebugs. They are usually referred to as 'thin winged cicada'[1][2] in Taiwan and 'peaceful cicada' in China due to their abundance in these areas.[2] They can be identified by their green appearance with thin, greenish, transparent wings[2] and are heavily distributed in China, Taiwan, Japan, India and Malaya.[3] However, there are limited number of scientific papers that describe the characteristics and behaviour of this species in detail.
