Abstract
One family, three genera, and 18 species of Ephemeroptera are newly re ported from Texas. Additional county, drainage, and biotic province re cords are given for another 13 species. This paper brings the total nu mber of nominal species of mayflies known from Texas to 93. Biogeograp hical trends and faunal affinities of these new Texas records further confirm previously published theories that the state can be viewed as a transitional zone with mayfly populations that have western, eastern and Neotropical affinities.
