Looks like Gerris
Can you get a good picture of the distal half of the hind leg?

picture of leg
Thanks for the help Arlo.
I just posted a biggish crop of a hind leg. Hopefully the right parts are there, and it's a good view angle. Let me know if I should put up a different view, leg. I was uncertain about what you needed exactly.
