Streams in the Mongolian Altai Mountains are mostly fed from glaciers and are extreme conditions for mayflies because of high elevation, low temperatures and low annual precipitation. Previous information about mayflies of Western Mongolia is scarce, but with this study a total of 38 species belonging to 26 genera and subgenera and 8 families of mayflies has been recorded in the Mongolian Altai region. Study material was entirely imagos and collected from 78 sites during expeditions led by the Mongolian Aquatic Insect Survey in 2008, 2009 and 2010. , and are recorded as new to the fauna of Mongolia, and there are new distribution records for , Baetis (Acentrella) lapponica, , Baetis (Labiobaetis) attrebatinus, , , , , , Ecdyonurus (Afronurus) abracadabrus, , Ecdyonurus (Afghanurus) vicinus and Epeorus (Belovius) pellucidus from the Mongolian Altai region. and are the most frequently encountered species in this region.
蒙古阿尔泰山脉的溪流大多由冰川补给,由于海拔高、气温低和年降水量少,对蜉蝣来说是极端环境。此前关于蒙古西部蜉蝣的信息很少,但通过这项研究,在蒙古阿尔泰地区共记录到蜉蝣8科26属及亚属的38个物种。研究材料全部为成虫,是在2008年、2009年和2010年蒙古水生昆虫调查队组织的考察中,从78个地点采集的。 、 和 被记录为蒙古动物区系新物种,蒙古阿尔泰地区还有 、拉普兰短脉扁蜉、 、阿特雷巴短脉扁蜉、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 近邻埃蜉和透明贝蜉的新分布记录。 和 是该地区最常见的物种。
