As in other mycetophilids, most important characters are on the male genitalia. Some other characters may sometimes help too, such as colour of thorax and legs, but specialists usually rely only on genitalic characters.
In fuscicorne, a single narrow apical projection of gonostylus is specific, see e.g. photo here:
