 This one actually had a medium tan body when it emerged. By the time I took the picture it was dark as night. I was actually looking through my box of specimens trying to figure out where that tan one I caught disappeared to. Then I realized this is it.

This caddisfly was collected from the Catskills on May 15th, 2007 and added to Troutnut.com on May 18th, 2007.
