Funny stuff...I think?

Funny perhaps, but also an obvious mistake in identification, as Ephemerella have 3 tails in their winged stages.

I'm glad that there are extremely knowledgeable people out there...I can't wait to amaze my buddys with this tidbit! What is the common name for this bug?....I could guess, but I would hate to look the fool....

Well, if there were such a mayfly, perhaps it would be called an Assassin Mayfly. My only point was, the cartoon would have had more taxonomic accuracy had the artist chosen a mayfly genus having two tails in its winged stages, rather than one with three.
