Leptophlebia
(Black Quills and Blue Quills) Mayfly Dun
View 7 Pictures
I collected this mayfly after user Al514 tipped me off to the presence of some
Leptophlebia
mayflies I didn't seem to have yet with his
ID request
of a male dun. This seems to be of the same species. I also collected
a female spinner
. Based on that spinner, I can tell that this is either
Leptophlebia cupida
or
Leptophlebia nebulosa
, but I can't tell which.
Unfortunately none of the specimens I collected made it through the hot, sunny day very well. So the pictures aren't great, but they're better than nothing.
