Not my group but perhaps
Tipula vittata? Pitty that the markings on the wing are not visible.

Hello Paul,
thank you for your answer,
without better fotos of wings it is a problem, of course,
Tipula sp. may be the best we can do.
greetings

A tip: if you photographed such a long-legged critter and have already an assumption of a genus (e. g.
Tipula), use the great website by Pjotr Oosterbroek "Catalogue of the Craneflies of the World" (
http://ccw.natura.../index.php). There you can search the name, combined with the country and pictures of the habitus. You get a lot of hits and can compare. It is really helpful.

Hi
Not sure but Tipula lateralis is also quite similar.
