I discovered this aquatic larva in May in very quick stream (1 m/s) inside algae. I made photo of alive larva and then tried to rear it. No success of course. No larger larvae or pupae in this place or in wet moss around the stream. Smolensk region.
The question is - is it possible to determine it?
The second - how to rear aquatic larvae in this case?
