Ephemera guttulata
Hi Terry-

This is an Ephemera guttulata female imago, and the very first of its species for the guide. Excellent find.

sweet...
no wonder neither of the BG spp. looked like a match to me

nice; looks like a fem.imago Ephemera
she lost her caudal filaments ('tails'), but hope our experts give us a sp. name; nice crisp image, too.

Moved from ID Request.

Mayfly...
That's about as far as I can go with an ID. I have only just dipped my toes in the waters of these critters. Someone may be able to help more.
