Good evening,
Here is a Limoniidae found in northern France on August 5:

Ormosia ?
If yes, possible to specify a species ?
Thank you,
Guénael.

oh yes, this proposal looks better. Thank Nikita !

For the species, Molophilus ochraceus looks good there and seems possible in northern France.
But other species too perhaps?

Hello,
In this photo we see a little better hypopygium:

The hypopygium of M.griseus like him ...
But other possible in northern France are also similar, perhaps?
Thank you,
Guénael.
