I found this mayfly in my moth trap this morning, outside Oslo. It had rather unusual green wingtips... Possible to say anything about species? rgds Geir gedra attached the following image: [135.83Kb] Edited by gedra on 12-08-2012 12:31 Geir |

My guess would be Cloeon dipterum, or a close relative. Not sure what to make of the green fluid in/on the wingtips.
