Roger, ... The Italians call this mayfly "Arenanna."

Douglas-
 
Your mayfly is Oligoneuriella rhenana, the only Italian species of family Oligoneuriidae (Bushlegged Mayflies).
Here is an illustration of it by Paul Troël from http://troel.free.fr/PL10.htm.

 

Incidentally, you might be interested in the Italian Mayfly Distribution page on my website.
