I found this female already spent (Spent: The wing position of many aquatic insects when they fall on the water after mating. The wings of both sides lay flat on the water. The word may be used to describe insects with their wings in that position, as well as the position itself.) and nearly dead, laying in the surface film of a very tiny spring seep (inch-deep water) in the valley of a very small trout stream.

This mayfly was collected from Mystery Creek #199 on July 28th, 2019 and added to Troutnut.com on July 30th, 2019.
