Adaptation of a flattened mayfly nymph?

A flattened mayfly nymph would be well-suited for life in fast-flowing streams or rivers, where a streamlined body shape helps reduce drag and improve swimming efficiency. This adaptation allows the nymph to conserve energy while navigating turbulent waters and avoiding predators. The flattened body also helps the nymph camouflage against the rocky riverbed, providing better protection from visual predators.


Is a yellow drake mayfly a herbivore?

No, a yellow drake mayfly is not a herbivore. Mayflies, including the yellow drake, are primarily aquatic insects that are part of the order Ephemeroptera and typically feed on organic matter and microorganisms in their larval stage. Adults often do not feed at all, as their primary purpose is reproduction. Therefore, they do not consume plant material as herbivores do.
