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.

This specimen appears to be of the same species as this one collected in the same spot two months earlier. The identification of both is tentative. This one suffered some physical damage before being photographed, too, so the colors aren't totally natural. I was mostly photographing it to test out some new camera setting idea, which worked really well for a couple of closeups.
27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

Hello Muwafaq-

Somehow, I doubt yours is a serious request. However if it is, Orthoptera is the order of insects containing grasshoppers, katydids, and crickets, all of which are terrestrial, as opposed to aquatic, so you won't find much on them here. You might want to look at BugGuide, which has lots of photos of Orthopterans.
Best regards,

Not my group but a long dormant part of the brain says Dicranota/Pedicia?
