  • Abstract
    The first mayfly from the British Cretaceous, Durlophlebia radleyi gen. et sp. nov., is described on the basis of a subimaginal hind wing from the Berriasian Purbeck Limestone Group of Dorset, UK. Its presence in hypersaline deposits in the Lulworth Formation indicates that there were also fresher water bodies in the region at that time.
