Autapomorphy of Cinygmula.

(1) Larval caudalii have no swimming setae [see Pentamerotarsata (6)] (unlike Rhithrogena/fg3, where primary swimming setae are retained). When swimming, larvae of Cinygmula make the same dosoventral movements by abdomen, as larvae with developed swimming setae [see Rhithrogena/fg2 (1)]; thus, loss of primary swimming setae is not connected with adaptation. Non-unique apomorphy (see Index of characters [1.3.66]).

Characters of Cinygmula of unclear phylogenetic status.

(2) Fibrillose portions of tergalii [see Branchitergaliae (3)] are diminished or lost (unlike Rhithrogena/fg3, where they are always large). Non-unique apomorphy (see Index of characters [1.3.25]).

Plesiomorphies of Cinygmula (unlike Rhithrogena/fg3). On 2nd+3rd segment of maxillary palp scraping setae have no denticles, occupy about 1/2 palp length only (Kluge 2004: Fig.62:A).

Larval and adult patella-tibial suture is developed on middle and hind legs only (unlike larval Rhithrogena/fg3). Tergalii do not form sucking disc (while in some species tergalius I is markedly widened anteriorly). Costal and anal ribs of tergalii are situated on costal and anal margin correspondingly [see Branchitergaliae (3)] (only on tergalius I costal rib can be reduced). Subimago without non-concave pigmented area behind apex of lateroparapsidal suture (Kluge 2004: Fig.63:A). Penis has median titillators [see Rhithrogena/fg2 (4) and Pentamerotarsata (5)].

Variable characters of Cinygmula. Imaginal and subimaginal claws are usually ephemeropteroid, but in hutchinsoni [O.] – pointed (see Variable characters of Heptagennota and Index of characters [2.2.85]). Gonostyli usually have 2 apical segments, but in tetramera [C.] they have 3 apical segments.

Size. Fore wing length 7–14 mm.

Distribution. Amphipacific Sector of Holarctic: Eastern Palaearctic and Nearctic; dominate in Eastern Palaearctic and Western Nearctic.
