The minminmin zemi is known for its distinctive “meen-min-min” call. Adults have brown and green body colors with transparent wingspan. It is found mainly in forests and urban parks, and chirps while perching on trees.

The singing minmins are males and have a ventral valve on their abdomen, which plays an important role in their singing. Cross-sectional examination of the male's body reveals a structure of muscle fibers for wing movement on the dorsal side, and a hollow resonance chamber in the abdomen. By vibrating the sound-producing muscles inside the abdominal valve, the minmins produce sound.
