There are over 2 000 named species in 200 genera and 19 families. The adults are soft bodied insects with very short antennae, vestigial mouthparts, two long cerci and usually a long caudal filament at the end of the abdomen. Most adult Mayflies have two pairs of wings however the second pair are considerably smaller than the first and in some species are absent altogether. Nymphs have much longer antennae, functioning mouthparts and are aquatic.
