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.

Roger is right, IMO. Where & when was this fly collected? Size?

Hi Byron,
The latest photo is of a mayfly in an entirely different family from your first one. Do you have answers to my questions posted above?

Ento,
I know, but it also is up for identification. Pic. Is a mayfly from Argentina.
Given its speckled nature and that it is from a lake I thought Calibaetis. But it has large hind wings. Could it be related to the Calibaetis??
Thanks
