Look to me like Cricotopus tricinctus (Chironomidae), female - but I'm not an expert.

Thanks a lot - Cricotopus seems to be a good choice! But maybe it is C. trifasciatus instead?

Hirvenoja (1973) separated the species:

Der Raum zwischen den Lmb hell; wenn Tergit IV pigmentiert ist, befindet sich die Pigmentierung der Gegend der analmedianen Muskelmale ... trifasciatus

Prsc oder der ganze Raum zwischen den Lmb dunkel, er ganz hell; wenn Tergit IV pigmentiert ist, befindet sich die Pigmentierung wenigstens in Oralecken des Tergits ... speciosus, tricinctus

Lmb: "laterale Mesonotalbinden"

Prsc: "Auf dem anterioren Scutum wird der Raum vor dem Scutellum, der oft stärker pigmentiert ist, von Strenzke (1959) als praescutellares Dreieck (Prsc) bezeichnet."
