Timpanoga
Timpanoga is a genus of spiny crawler mayflies in the family Ephemerellidae, established by Needham in 1927. The genus contains a single described species, Timpanoga hecuba, commonly known to fly fishermen as the great red quill. This species is significant in angling communities as a model for artificial fly patterns imitating adult and subimago (dun) forms.
