Blue-winged Olives
Baetis
Tiny Baetis mayflies are perhaps the most commonly encountered and imitated by anglers on all American trout streams due to their great abundance, widespread distribution, and trout-friendly emergence habits.

I caught this tiny larva without a case, but it seems to key pretty clearly to to Glossosomatidae. From there, the lack of sclerites on the mesonotum points to either Glossosoma or Anagapetus. Although it's difficult to see in a 2D image from the microscope, it's pretty clear in the live 3D view that the pronotum is only excised about 1/3 of its length to accommodate the forecoxa, not 2/3, which points to Glossosoma at Couplet 5 of the Key to Genera of Glossosomatidae Larvae.

The Jodea is EPIC. I got one a month ago and I will tell all you that if you like having a portable carrier that you can not lose this is it. Handling mayflies is tricky when you are seriously collecting for science and sometimes people may like small independant containers. But if you fly fish and collect a few every trip to post here, the Jodea is exactly what you need. I told Jeremiah I was going to give him excellent input towards considering another model of the same unit that is geared to the serious collector guy like me.
I even have a Canadian store chain that has looked at it with interest.
The black flies have forced me to just collecting so far. But in a few weeks I will be up north and fishing YEEeeee. I am going to film a HD video on this product to show how we in north America would use it. It is so well made you would not believe me until you see it. www.thejodea.com
It is truly is EPIC.
