The Cicadoidea, cicadas (/sÉªËkÉËdÉ/ or /sÉªËkeÉªdÉ/), are a superfamily of insects in the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha (formerly part of the obsolete Homoptera), along with smaller jumping bugs such as leafhoppers and froghoppers.ost cicadas go through a life cycle that lasts from two to five years. Some species have much longer life cycles, such as the North American genus, Magicicada, which has a number of distinct  broods  that go through either a 17-year or, in some parts of the world, a 13-year life cycle.
