 Several stoneflies of this species were the first adult insects I found in 2004 when I started this site. The hatch was sparse but lasted a good part of the day, and I noted a few good rises despite the early season cold. They ended up struggling on the water's surface fairly often.

This stonefly was collected from the Upper Midwest on March 16th, 2004 and added to Troutnut.com on January 25th, 2006.
