Autapomorphies of Neoephemera/fg2. (1) Larval thoracic terga with more or less expressed protuberances; these are: a pair of submedian protuberances on anterior part of pronotum on the crest bordering collar [see Fimbriatotergaliae (1)]; a pair of submedian protuberances on anterior part of mesonotum on the crest bordering collar [see Caenotergaliae (5)]; and an unpaired protuberance near posterior margin of mesonotum. Non-unique apomorphy; variable dorsal protuberances occur in some other mayflies, but not in other Neoephemera/fg1. Plesiomorphies of Neoephemera/fg2. Unlike Potamanthellus/g1, larval caudalii without secondary swimming setae. In imago and subimago all claws are ephemeropteroid, including male fore legs. Gonostyli are not diminished, median incision of penis is small (unlike Potamanthellus/g1). Imaginal paracercus is well-developed (unlike Leucorhoenanthus and Potamanthellus/g1). |
Size. Fore wing length 8–17 mm.
Distribution. Eastern Nearctic.
