no, no, sorry, I do not know how to talk to that guy. but I think he knows less than you and I, because there is genus, or family, only the common name. what? Butterflies? I made from a very cool video. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7a7ZAqWBIs) thanks. :)

Yes, it's a cicada, RiekoS. But I can not find name for these things. There is no way to find names for most insects in Brazil.
