Pacarina shoemakeri, the little juniper cicada, is a species of cicada in the family Cicadidae. It is found in North America.[1][2][3] They are a recategorization of what was previously classified as the juniper variety of the Pacarina puella.[4] In the United States, it can be found in the states of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas, in chaparral, intermountain woodlands, and elevated regions of the Chihuahua desert.[5] They have also been found in Cimarron County, Oklahoma, and are associated with plants in the Juniperus genus.[6] The species is named after Eugene Shoemaker.[7]
