 Thanks Jan, Iain. I was completely fooled by the black knob on the haltere.

 It has an intra-alar bristle and dark halteres, so it is likely one of the dark-colored Minettia that we call the obscura group in America and I think go under the name Frendelia in Europe.

 Thanks John. Yes, Paul Beuk has confirmed via Facebook that it is Minettia longipennis.

Hello, I'm looking for literature on chironomid larvae that are able to survive after being entrapped in ice for at least several days . So far I've only found literature on Eretmoptera murphy
