Probably Epeorus
This is a heptageniid; but I believe it is Epeorus, possibly E. albertae.

UI Mayfly
Mark-

I believe your UI Mayfly to be a female subimago of family Heptageniidae, possibly Heptagenia. I have a feeling that I shouldn’t even ask, but what’s UI?

Thanks
Thanks for the help identifying this UnIdentified (UI) Mayfly. I had a feeling some might wonder, especially since I just took pictures of Io Moth caterpillars.
