Hex Mayflies
Hexagenia limbata
The famous nocturnal Hex hatch of the Midwest (and a few other lucky locations) stirs to the surface mythically large brown trout that only touch streamers for the rest of the year.

This wild-looking little thing completely puzzled me. At first I was thinking beetle or month larva, until I got a look at the pictures on the computer screen. I made a couple of incorrect guesses before entomologist Greg Courtney pointed me in the right direction with Psychodidae. He suggested a possible genus of Thornburghiella, but could not rule out some other members of the tribe Pericomini.

fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or

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.

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