Misthodotes is an extinct genus of stem-group mayflies which existed during the Permian of what is now the United States, Russia and Germany. It was first described under the name Dromeus by Elias Howard Sellards in 1907.[2] It was found that this name had already been used for another genus, so Sellards renamed his genus to Misthodotes in 1909.[3] Unlike the adults of modern mayflies, which have non-functional mouthparts and are unable to feed, adults of Misthodotes had functional mouthparts for chewing.[4][5]
