Posts: 2Dave Funk et al. (2008) just reestablished the species of D. cornuta and D. cornutella in a very elegant paper looking at morphological, biological, and molecular evidence. The three species are easily identifiable in New Hampshire. Your photos above seems to be of Drunella cornuta.

Posts: 1681		Hi Don,

It's great to have you posting here!

There are several ephemerellid species pages that will need updating to reflect very recent work (the Funk et al. paper and the Jacobus/McCafferty revision of the Ephemerellinae). I suspect that Jason has just been too busy with his studies to do that yet.

Best,
Lloyd

Posts: 2737		Yeah, thanks for the updates! Gonzo is right that I'm really tied up with classes right now (in the middle of my busiest semester of grad school) so I haven't been able to keep up, but rest assured that I will carefully comb through all these recent threads and incorporate your corrections when I can.
