Mayflies and stoneflies look much alike. You will have to examine them carefully with a magnifying glass to tell the difference, or even look at them through a microscope. As insects, both have six legs, of course. Both have elongated bodies, with long abdomens. Their similarities may have to do with their similar environments: both hug the bottom of fast streams, clinging to debris, rocks, and sediments with their tiny claws. Both must keep from being washed away (although some mayflies will let go and swim or drift sometimes), and both must breathe underwater.

Can stoneflys bite you?

Stoneflies do not bite humans as they do not have the mouthparts to do so. They primarily feed on vegetation and algae in freshwater environments during their larval stages. If a stonefly were to "bite" you, it would likely be harmless and more of a gentle pinch due to their lack of biting structures.


Do stoneflys bite?

Stoneflies do not bite humans. They are primarily aquatic insects that feed on organic matter and are not aggressive. While some species have mouthparts that could potentially cause a minor pinch if handled, they lack the capability to bite in the way that many other insects do. Overall, they are harmless to humans.
