The Heptageniidae stoneclinger mayfly nymph is an aquatic insect from the Heptageniidae family, commonly known as stoneclinger mayflies due to their ability to cling tightly to rocks and other submerged surfaces in fast-moving streams and rivers. These nymphs have adapted to turbulent waters with specialized, flattened bodies and strong, claw-like structures that allow them to hold onto surfaces even in strong currents.

The nymphs are an important part of freshwater ecosystems, serving as both prey for other animals and playing a role in nutrient cycling by feeding on organic matter. Their life cycle involves several stages, with the nymphs emerging from the water as winged adults for a brief reproductive phase before dying.

In terms of identification, Heptageniidae nymphs typically have long, slender bodies, well-developed gills along the sides of their abdomen, and three tail filaments extending from the end of their body. They are often found in clear, oxygen-rich waters where they thrive as part of the ecosystem's food web.
