Life of the Party
Camelobaetidius warreni nymphs are usually found in the fall months, living in fairly fast water. The bottom consists of small gravel and cobble. These nymphs were collected in the Russian River. Length is about 5.5 - 6 mm in length excluding cerci. They can be easily be seperated from other Baetidae by their bowed tarsi and spatulate claws.
