Female Ephemerellidae (Hendricksons, Sulphurs, PMDs, BWOs) Mayfly Dun Pictures



 I've tentatively called this fragile, highly damaged dun a Serratella species. I had much better pictures of the species but lost them. It's about size 22, but good-sized trout were rising to this hatch; I suspect it has to do with the solid profile shown by the dark, almost-black wings that have given this hatch the name "Darth Vaders" among some Wisconsin anglers.

This mayfly was collected from unknown on July 14th, 2004 and added to Troutnut.com on January 25th, 2006.
