~39 mm, caught in a bottle trap baited with beef liver & placed among a clearing of Typha in a beaver pond. No noticeable exterior damage to their integument so I suspect either an adult that emerged this summer or last summer. Pictures taken and individual released at the location of the trap.

First adult I have caught in this location, earlier in the year larvae were particularly abundant throughout this wetland as well as caddisfly larvae. Interestingly this individual has a strong green cast, yet the larvae I have raised from this population both have a duller green cast so I am wondering if there is an epigenetic factor for this colouration.
