Abstract

All naiads of the burrowing mayfly, Hexagenia limbata, examined from Bluestem Lake, Lancaster County, Nebraska, were infected by trematode metaccrcariae. The naiads hosted two species of trematode, Megaiogollia ictaluri Surber, 1928, and Crepidostolllum cooperi Hopkins, 1931. Three thousand sixty-three cysts from 24 mayflies were inspected to confirm their identity and to determine their distribution on the naiads.
