Leptoceridae Caddisfly AdultLeptoceridae Caddisfly Adult View 17 PicturesThis specimen keyed easily to Leptoceridae, but I hit a bit of a dead end in the genus key, because I can't seem to find the cross-veins in the wings that are supposed to help narrow it down. I took pictures of all the relevant features under the microscope; maybe somebody with more experience with the family can help.

Libellulidae Dragonfly AdultLibellulidae Dragonfly Adult View 3 PicturesThis specimen of Libella saturata, the flame skimmer dragonfly, is the only invertebrate in this site's collection that I caught by hook and line. It swooped down and attacked my dry fly on the Firehole River, where it lived as a nymph in the hot water near the geothermal springs and geyser runoff.

Female Hydropsyche (Spotted Sedges) Caddisfly AdultFemale Hydropsyche (Spotted Sedges) Caddisfly Adult View 7 PicturesThis species was really common along the Henry's Fork at the end of July. I photographed it along with a male that appears to be the same species, and another male of the same genus but a seemingly different, less common (on this day) species.
