中国科学院南京地质古生物研究所近日公布了一项研究成果，科研人员对距今约2.3亿年前至6600万年前的蝉总科化石进行了系统分析。这项研究揭示了蝉的早期演化历史，颠覆了人们对蝉的传统认知。研究发现，约1亿年前的蝉并非“大嗓门”。
通过对化石的详细研究，科学家们发现蝉在演化过程中发生了许多有趣的变化。在这个过程中，蝉的声音器官也逐渐发生变化。研究人员表示，这一发现为理解蝉的演化提供了重要线索。

A recent study by the Nanjing Institute of Geological Paleontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has revealed new insights into the early evolution of cicadas. By analyzing fossilized cicadas dating back 230 million years to 66 million years ago, researchers have discovered that cicadas from approximately 100 million years ago were not “loudmouths.”
The detailed study of the fossils provides interesting insights into the evolutionary process of cicadas and how their sound organs gradually changed over time. The findings offer important clues for understanding the evolution of cicadas and contribute to a deeper understanding of these fascinating insects.
