Stoneflies and SnowfliesWhat is it?
Hi
I took a pic of an insect that appears to be skeletal remains that had been on a rock near a river. I have no idea what type of bug it is. I used a super macro shot on it. The actual size is about 1/2". Looking forward to hearing from you,
Deb

Hi Deb,
This is the exoskeleton of a Stonefly. The larvae are known as naiads and they are aquatic.
