maleīs eyes, not that strange :) Iīve no idea, i "feel" Baetis is more probable than Centroptilum but I canīt tell, in case it is Baetis the colour of the eyes seems next to B. fuscatus more than to B. rhodani
- it should have 2 tails (not 3)
- it should have (though maybe very reduced) a 2nd pair of wings
Thereīs a nice and cheap book from "naturalistīs handbooks", Nr 13, (Harker, J.) but i donīt know if it will be good for Nederlands, theres a better guide now for all Europe, but not that cheap. Good luck :)


Yes, second pair of wing very reduced till about 0,5 mm and probable two tailed, but it lacks one.
And thanks for the rest of your info
