I'm not telling. Let's just say I did a lot better the second time.

15 out of twenty, but the last one is a bit of a trick question, because our ephemeroptera nymphs have three tails. I'm kicking myself, because two tails suggested stonefly, but the body is all wrong for that. I'll have to study harder.
And the artificial flies were mainly American. Crafty beggars, these Americans, no wonder they duffed us up at Boston!! TC

The whole thing was American based. I got about 15 right first go but some of the terminology was alien to me.
