It isn't Psychodidae, the legs are too long and the antennae have far too much segments. I do not recognize this kind of venation, it will be a family which does not live in Europe. |

These are rare and specialists may want to see the specimen. The last new species I can find was described here: https://doi.org/1...2000500009; there are more recent papers on other genera in the subfamily. Also, please submit the photo to the gallery. [Edit: I see you already found the paper while I was typing.] Edited by John Carr on 31-12-2020 22:52 |

Comparing the OP photo to figure 10 in the paper cited above says to me that specialists will want to see ADDITIONAL specimens -- the photo starting the thread seems to me to be of a female (taxonomy of non-biting Psychodidae is based as much as possible on males at present). Still a good find, and best of luck finding more specimens! |
