''Macrotristria angularis'', commonly known as the cherrynose, is an Australian cicada native to eastern Australia, where it is found in sclerophyll forests. ==Taxonomy== German naturalist Ernst Friedrich Germar described the cherrynose in 1834 as ''Cicada angularis'', reporting its type locality incorrectly as Sierra Leone. Swedish entomologist Carl Stål named the genus ''Macrotristria'' in 1870, though this was misspelt as ''Macrotristia'' and ''Macrotistria'' in some later publications. The cherrynose is the type species of the genus. The cherrynose gets its common name from a red structure that resembles a nose, yet is in fact a structure containing muscles that help the cicada suck xylem from trees with its proboscis. An alternate common name is whiskey drinker.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cicadas: Rhythm of life )〕
