This nenus now includes more than 80 Nearctic species, only 11 of which have, so far, been taken in Illinois. Quite a few more species of Kt^lu iiuii ll<i niij^ht, however, basal three of which are short and approxi- mately equal in length; the apical segment is usually as long as the basal three com- bined. P^ach arm of the male genital forceps has three segments, the basal one short, broad, and usually indistinctly set off from the distal ones; the second segment is long and somewhat bowed; and the third segment is usually minute, although it is fairly long in a few species. The penis lobes invariably are fused at the base on the meson; in most species, this mesal fusing extends almost to the tips of the penis lobes. There are three long caudal filaments. The nymphs, figs. 172 and 17.^, are more or less flattened dorsovcntrally. In each, the. Fig. 115.—Ephrmerrlla argo, head of adult male, anterior aspect.

For that reason, a number of extralimital, northern species of Ephemerella have been included in the keys and discus- sions given below. In each fore wing of the Ephemerella adults, the costal crossveins are entirely wanting or a few apical ones are very weakly indicated, the stigmatic crossveins are weak and usually slightly anastomosed, and all other crossveins a
