3 august 2010, The Netherlands, Reestdal In vegetation near stream, 6,3 mm long It is a male - in females the eyes are more normal. In Baetis i pictured a male with pillow shaped upper eyes, but the eyes in this species are quit weird also... I wonder which species this is Klaas Klaas attached the following image:  [165.58Kb] |

male�s eyes, not that strange :) I�ve no idea, i "feel" Baetis is more probable than Centroptilum but I can�t tell, in case it is Baetis the colour of the eyes seems next to B. fuscatus more than to B. rhodani - it should have 2 tails (not 3) - it should have (though maybe very reduced) a 2nd pair of wings There�s a nice and cheap book from "naturalist�s handbooks", Nr 13, (Harker, J.) but i don�t know if it will be good for Nederlands, theres a better guide now for all Europe, but not that cheap. Good luck :) |

Good luck Yes, second pair of wing very reduced till about 0,5 mm and probable two tailed, but it lacks one. And thanks for the rest of your info Klaas |
