And:
Paraleptophlebia adoptiva
(This is a mayfly species endemic to North America)
COMMON NAMES: Slate-winged Mahogany Dun.
=========================================================
NYMPH:
Size: 7 - 9 mm.
Num. tails: 3
Tails: tannish olive
Body: medium brown
Wing Cases: black
Legs: tannish olive
Found in water: medium.
Range: East to Midwest.
Lifestyle: crawler
Significant feature is Clinger vs. crawler, which determines shape and legginess. For these, in the right size, any brownish hares ear or pheasant tail will work. If not, please blame me.
