Yesterday on the Juniata River and today on the Frankstown Branch, I observed lots of small stoneflies with thin black bodies and mottled tan/black wings (size 18?) which appeared to be emerging midstream. As these flies left the water, they headed straight for the streamside vegetation. Is it possible there is a stonefly here that emerges midstream instead of on the rocks? Were these egg laying adults that had floated by unnoticed by me, only to appear as if they were emerging when they took flight again? Some other explanation? I didn't get a picture, but they are definitely stoneflies.
