ERABUTAMADARA(M) & AKAMADARA(M) dun
















This morning, I found these two mayflies' dun on a screen door.

Left one seemed to be ERABUTAMADARA mayfly, three tails, 5mm body length and its color. Right one looked like AKAMADARA mayfly, three tails, 7mm length and red color.


My daughter and I planed to see their ecdysis in a small plastic case.

But they did it in short time which we didn't see. Maybe they felt a kind of danger and accelerated their change to spinner.
