Fossil March Fly (Plecia) - Green River Formation

This is a fossil "March Fly", Plecia pealei from the Eocene aged Green River Formation in Wyoming. It's .55" long and show a bit of detail under magnification, the wings, body and a few legs are easily visible.

Beware: I've seen many of these flies for sale of fossil shows that are more or less just painted onto the rock and don't have any visible detail to their bodies.
