    Default What mayfly

    Was up on a ridge at a friend's place in Occidental, CA in October when this mayfly blew in the house and landed on the wall.
    Am pretty sure it is a Callibaetis, but not sure of the exact species. Any thoughts?

    You might be right......the adult usually has a completely modeled wing and the spinners have that modeling on the leading front edge?
