Siphluriscidae is a family of mayflies. It contains a single extant species, Siphluriscus chinensis, which is native to Vietnam and China.^[1]^[2] It is thought to be the most primitive living lineage of mayflies.^[3] A fossil genus, Stackelbergisca is known from several species from the Jurassic and Early Cretaceous of Asia.^[1] A second species of Siphluriscus, S. davidi was later assigned to the genus Siphlonurus.^[1]
