Water striders?

[vexxxed]

These were washed onto the walking path after the storm.
Are they a type of water strider? Name? I’m used to seeing only a few at a time with more narrow bodies in the creek.

probably Gerris remigis, common pond skater, I think there is only 1 North American species, they also can fly, one time I had
one bouncing along on the patio, thinking, "it can't get away".

Yes the water strider but as I wrote these don’t have the long narrow body that I’m used to seeing. Thanx

Unless these are nymphs or younger ones or at an earlier stage?

Is this a possibility? It looks like they do have that white marking on their backs but I think the antenna is different
