Jason, thanks. I did look on the site, but somehow overlooked these photos. This is helpful. I also did a general Google image search and got all sorts of colors, but most of the lighter BQ nymphs looked immature, with light wing pads. You and others responding are getting me closer to an answer about my emerger question.
