ebbek
Any ideas about this small (body around 2 mm) nematocera? From a green-house in our garden in south Sweden today.

Regards

Runs to Lestremia or Anaretella in Jaschhof's key.

Many thanks John Carr! Is there any key available to this subfamily with only 8 species recorded in Sweden?

In the british key to Lestremiinae (Mikes Insect Keys) it fits well to a male Lestremia cinerea with "Gonostylus with a two-pointed tooth-like structure at the tip".

I consulted The Wood Midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae: Lestremiinae) of Fennoscandia and Denmark, one of several publications by Mathias Jaschhof on the Lestremiinae and Porricondylinae of Fennoscandia. They are not online as far as I know.
