This dun was badly damaged in transport and all its legs fell off, but I photographed it anyway because I wasn't sure I would fine more and it's an interesting species. Luckily I collected better specimens a few days later.

This mayfly was collected from the Namekagon River on June 5th, 2005 and added to Troutnut.com on May 25th, 2006.
