A West Virginia University research team led by Matt Kasson, associate professor of forest pathology and mycology, recently uncovered Massospora-infected âZombie Cicadas in West Virginia.
Massospora is a psychedelic manipulative fungus that infects and alters the behavior of cicadas.
Brian Lovett, a postdoctoral researcher for Davis College of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Design, explained how the Massospora species infects cicadas by manipulating the insectsâ mating cycle.
âThis pathogen manipulates the behavior of cicadas such that infected males will attract uninfected males to mate with the fungus: this spreads the fungal infection,â he said. âSince the fungus is manipulating the cicadas, they are considered zombies.â ....

Coming this summer to New Jersey The attack of the sex-crazed zombie cicadas. No it s not a movie, it s real. They re also known as the flying salt shakers of death .
What makes these insects so horny? It turns out that during those 13-17 years they spend underground, they re infected with a fungus called Massospora cicadina, which has chemicals similar to hallucinogenic mushrooms.
This fungus, despite causing their genitals and butts to fall right off, makes them so sex-crazed, according to researchers at West Virginia University, that when they emerge from the ground, they try to mate with everything they come in contact with. Sort of like Pepe Le Pew only these characters aren t cancelled. In fact, they oblivious to what s going on. That s where the zombie part comes in. ....

Cicadas are emerging throughout central and southern Ohio.
OHIO The 17-year cicada mating season underway in Ohio is already basically death sex for the insects, which spend nearly two decades underground just waiting for this moment.
But researchers say the insects, which will die a couple or three weeks after answering nature s call to perpetuate their species, face a rather ghastly peril: certain types of the fungus Massospora that contain the same psychoactive chemicals found in hallucinogenic mushrooms and street amphetamines.
And as these psychoactive compounds do to humans, the fungus Massospora is causing some bizarre cicada behavior. ....

For the past 17 years, while Brood X cicada nymphs sipped tree-root sap underground, a deadly enemy was lying in wait near those very same trees.
Massospora cicadina is a fungus that targets periodical cicadas in the genus ....
