Framed Print : Female mayfly
Framed Photos From Science Photo Library
Female mayfly
Female mayfly. This mayfly (order Ephemeroptera) is in its first stage, the subimago, of two flying stages. It has emerged from its nymphal stage in the river and flown to nearby vegetation for shelter until the final moult to an imago (spinner). The dull appearance is due to the final skin, which is yet to be shed. It even covers the wings, giving them a papery appearance. The female has smaller eyes and shorter front legs than the male mayfly (see image C001/0458)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of a female mayfly in its first stage, known as the subimago. Emerging from its nymphal stage in the river, this ephemeral creature has sought refuge on nearby vegetation before undergoing its final transformation into an imago or spinner. The dull appearance of this mayfly is attributed to its yet-to-be-shed final skin, which envelops not only its body but also covers its wings, lending them a papery texture. While observing this enchanting specimen, one can notice that the female mayfly possesses smaller eyes and shorter front legs compared to her male counterpart. This image provides a glimpse into the intricate world of nature's winged wonders and offers insight into their unique characteristics. The photograph captures a single female mayfly suspended gracefully amidst lush greenery. Its translucent wings delicately showcase the intricate network of veins that enable these ethereal creatures to take flight. With meticulous attention to detail, Science Photo Library presents us with an opportunity to appreciate the mesmerizing complexity found within even the smallest inhabitants of our natural world. Through this stunning portrayal of biology in action, we are reminded once again of nature's awe-inspiring diversity and resilience. It serves as a testament to both the fragility and strength inherent in all living organisms - no matter how short-lived their existence may be.
