- Abstract
We described the life cycles of 17 riffle-dwelling mayfly species in a central Japanese stream. Both species of Baetidae ( Alainites yoshinensis Gose and Baetis thermicus Uéno) and two of nine species of Heptageniidae ( Ecdyonurus scalaris Kluge and Epeorus latifolium Uéno/ l- nigrus Matsumura) in this stream were multivoltine (more than one generation per year). Seven other heptageniid species (two unidentified species of Cinygmula, Epeorus aesculus Imanishi, E. curvatulus Matsumura, E. ikanonis Takahashi, E. napaeus Imanishi, and Rhithrogena japonica Uéno) and all six species of Ephemerellidae [ Cincticostella elongatula (McLachlan), C. nigra (Uéno), Drunella basalis (Imanishi), D. ishiyamana Matsumura, D. sachalinensis (Matsumura), and D. trispina (Uéno)] were essentially univoltine.
