Taxonomic Placement Of Mayfly Exuvia
Hi dvoribird-

Although I would not quibble with placement of this mayfly exuvia at the taxonomic level of (suborder) Pisciforma, or for that matter even at (family) Baetidae, I am curious what characters you are seeing that lead you to say, maybe (genus) Baetis? Please advise. Thanks.

 
No clue here!
Only that the only imago I had been seeing in this area was Baetis.
I have no education in entomology and am here just trying to learn. I wasn't even confident enough to place it in Ephemeroptera.
