Pic taken on 11.10.2007 in Belgium.
I was thinking to Ctenophora but not sure...
Perhaps Chironomus plumosus ?
Can you help me please ?
Thx in advance Smile

no.. Chironomidae. Species is virtually impossible to know only with photos.
Unless that it is very peculiar.

Hi Jorge Smile
I thought to Chironomidae while you was answering...
Species is not possible but genius : Chironomus ?
Thanks again Jorge Smile
