Female Calineuria californica (Golden Stone) Stonefly Adult Pictures

 I caught this female in the vegetation on a trail about 50 feet above the stream. The coloration on its head differs from that of a male I collected recently on a nearby river, and from another female I collected on the same river. But it still keys out confidently to Calineuria, and californica is the only species of that genus in the area.

This stonefly was collected from Mystery Creek #249 on July 25th, 2019 and added to Troutnut.com on July 26th, 2019.
