This one seems to lead to Couplet 35 of the Key to Genera of Perlodidae Nymphs and the genus Isoperla, but I'm skeptical that's correct based on the general look. I need to get it under the microscope to review several choices in the key, and it'll probably end up a different Perlodidae.
Troutnut is a project started in 2003 by salmonid ecologist Jason "Troutnut" Neuswanger to help anglers and
fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or
support the project for an enhanced experience here.

I do not post on this forum very often, but I do spend alot of time here learning as much as I can. This is one of the more informative sites that I know of for Entomology and how it relates to trout. Keep up the fantastic work all,

It's OK to disagree with me. I can not force you to be right.
