Photographed today at Leerdam, Netherland. Nrs. 1 and 2 are the same individual, nr. 3 is another individual, but it looked very similar to me. Pretty small flies, about 6-7 mm (? guess). Could anyone say something about it? Thanks in advance! http://slamenietd...web-log.nl |

I'd say rather 'a-typical' Chironomidae...

Hello, Jan! Dilophus febrilis females? But better wait for the experts. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Definitely not Bibionidae.

The more flies I try to identify, the more respect I get for the experts on this site  Fortunately I can still say I'm just a beginner. Thank you, Paul and Juergen! http://slamenietd...web-log.nl |

Hello, Paul! Paul Beuk wrote: I'd say rather 'a-typical' Chironomidae... That would have been my second guess  (overlapping posts).

Female Chironomidae, I would say this midge looks rather typical, as far as the black female Chironomids (many many species) are concerned. |
