luteum stenonema
Not Ephemerella subvaria. That is a north American species only. It is in the super family of heptageniidae and is very closely related to Maccaffertium. If this were a sample from NA I would call it a Maccaffertium for sure. All Ephemerella SP have three tails not two tails as yours has.
