Many branches have the same symptoms. Over the weekend I've observed many occurrences of this phenomenon, mostly on pin oaks. The branches show no insect damage at the base of the affected area. The brown leaves are fully grown leaves. See also https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/90423275 Tags ovipositor, Flagging, Browning, cicada 3 comments 3 IDs Research Grade View	yes

Photos / Sounds 3 photos What Shingle Oak (Quercus imbricaria) Observer m_whitson Date July 2021 Place Kentucky, US (Google, OSM) Date Added July 30, 2023 12:17 AM EDT Description This is a shingle oak showing some unusual damage to its foliage. This is called flagging, and it's due to our recent (Brood X) Magicicada emergence. The female cicadas so vigorously punched these twigs when laying eggs that they caused them to die. It looks bad, but these will fall off and then the tree will have about 17 years to recover. Apparently, this doesn't do too much harm to mature trees, but little saplings can be seriously damaged.
