 Ephemeroptera
Ephemeroptera is a group of 2,000 insect species commonly known as mayflies.
Ephemeroptera are aquatic insects that often go through many nymph stages (living in water) and two flying stages (the subimago and the imago).
Ephemeroptera nymphs may grow to anywhere from 4 mm to 3 cm long.

The Ephemeroptera are among the most primitive of flying insects.
They are delicate, elongate Palaeopteran insects with net-veined wings, of which the second-pair is reduced in size and function and in advanced forms may be absent.
In fact during the Jurassic the diversity of the Ephemeroptera reached its highest extent, fossils of nine families have been found during this period.

 Ephemeroptera fossil insects   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
From the first dawn of life, all organic beings are found to resemble each other in descending degrees, so they can be classed in groups under groups.
Insect Order Ephemeroptera comprise the Mayflies that like Odonata (Dragonflies Damsel Flies) and the cockroaches is one of the oldest types of insects, and are the oldest of the extant winged insects.
The larvae are aquatic and dominate the life cycle; the adults do not feed and live a few hours to days, just long enough to mate and lay eggs.

The Ephemeroptera Recording Scheme has been set up, under the auspices of the Biological Records Centre, to encourage the recording of Ephemeroptera species throughout the British Isles.
The aim of the recording scheme is to collect records of Ephemeroptera species throughout the British Isles.
This will ultimately lead to the publication of an atlas of British Ephemeroptera and the monitoring of changes in the distribution of Ephemeroptera populations.
