1 Mayfly Specimen in the Species Nixe inconspicua:
Nixe inconspicua Mayfly Dun
View 13 PicturesThis pretty little dun was part of a sparse midsummer evening hatch on a large Catskill river.
I could not identify it by following a species key step by step, but I tentatively keyed it to the genus Nixe, and based on distribution maps and physical descriptions the most likely species is Nixe inconspicua.
