There are more than 2,000 species of mayflies, most of which live in fresh water.<\/p>\n<p>The mayfly life cycle can be divided into four stages: egg, nymph, pupa, and adult. Eggs are deposited by the female mayfly in water, where they hatch into nymphs. Nymphs are <a href=\"https:\/\/infinitylearn.com\/surge\/biology\/aquatic-ecosystem\/\">aquatic<\/a> and undergo a series of molts as they grow. Once they have reached their final stage of development, nymphs transform into pupae. Pupae are also aquatic and undergo a metamorphosis, turning into adult mayflies. Adult mayflies have wings and can fly. They mate and then die, completing the life cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Mayflies undergo a complete metamorphosis, which means that they go through four very different stages of development. The egg stage is the beginning of the life cycle. Eggs are tiny and round, and they are deposited by the female mayfly into water. After the eggs hatch, the tiny nymphs emerge. Nymphs are aquatic and they live in the water where they feed and grow. They undergo a series of molts, or skin changes, as they grow. Once they have reached their final stage of development, nymphs transform into pupae.<\/p>\n<p>Pupae are also aquatic and they undergo a metamorphosis, turning into adult mayflies.
