Dominican Amber Fossil
Ephemeroptera Leptophlebiidae - Mayfly
Ephemeroptera are the most primitive winged insects, well known for their short-lived adult phase. As their name suggests (from ancient greek ephemeros: day long - pteron wing). Individual life span of adults usually lasts no more than 24 hours, with extremes between a few minutes and some days. For this reason fossil mayflies in amber are very rare. Adult mayflies are collected and eaten in many parts of Asia.
