The Walker Cicada is a very common insect in the Animal Crossing series that first appears in Doubutsu no Mori. It has a unique sound, different to other cicadas, which is best described as a noise similar to walking on a sticky floor surface. It is the second-most expensive cicada, selling for 400 Bells, as well as the smallest (44 mm). It is also the only cicada to be found in the month of September.
