Hello!

Sorry for the bad pics. This one was only 3.5 mm, but bigger and darker than the Lonchopteras I know. So I am not sure even about the family... At window frame of garden shed, yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany).

and I mistaked in my fly!!! LOL

Well, Jurgen, Lonchopteridae has very acute wings, much more we can see in Clusiidae. The wings are so peculiar, that if you see carefully some Lonchopteridae you will ID it easily. More, usually, Lonchopteridae are very bristly in all the legs. Clusiidae usually only in tibiae.
Nikita, do you agree? Smile
