Thank you for the identification PJ, and thanks for bringing Hilsenhoff's Aquatic Insects of Wisconsin to my attention. Since I am located on the edge of Lake Michigan a guide to aquatic insects of Wisconsin will be a great resource.
Thanks Lyndell, I will look for them. It will be a good excuse to take a walk along the lake.

They’re pretty small for a macroinvert so it takes a while to spot them. One of my faves for sure. Thanks for the photos and the conversation! Lyndell Lyndell M. Bade, MSc.

The larvae are aquatic, so this adult must have accidentally flown in from outside. According to Hilsenhoff's Aquatic Insects of Wisconsin, we have 10 genera and 50+ spp. from this genus in Wisconsin. ---PJ ------------------------------ Patrick (PJ) Liesch UW-Madison Dept.
