Does anyone know about Cicadidae of Texas?

Cicadidae is the family that includes cicadas. Ive looked on the Internet and the information ive found about genus and species is scant. Ive looked on the Google Groups-Cicadas of Texas. Does anybody know of a text/s on cicada identification of N. America at least?

Thanks for the help

Boy..are we thinking alike..I took these pics this am and then went researching for it...I found a few sites..but I live in Mass and found the Mass site the best..I typed Massachusetts cicada in on google...

Here is a link that might be useful: general cicada stuff

yes i got my peterson guide to insects for $6, and that cicada ID was a pure guess i just based it on the pic, you ought to ask the guy of the Mass. site for a confirmation.
I dont know anything about cicada species at the moment
