Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Mayfly (Ephemeroptera) -> Cloeon dipterum

Hi,
Yesterday I met this mayfly male with its impressive turbinate eyes and two long cerci. I thought of Cloeon, as I cannot see any hindwings; the wing venation, however, seems to fit Baetis better. There are still more genera that I do not know, so help is very appreciated!
Regards, Sundew
