Look to me like Cricotopus tricinctus (Chironomidae), female - but I'm not an expert.

Thanks a lot - Cricotopus seems to be a good choice! But maybe it is C. trifasciatus instead?

Hirvenoja (1973) separated the species:

Der Raum zwischen den Lmb hell; wenn Tergit IV pigmentiert ist, befindet sich die Pigmentierung der Gegend der analmedianen Muskelmale ... trifasciatus

Prsc oder der ganze Raum zwischen den Lmb dunkel, er ganz hell; wenn Tergit IV pigmentiert ist, befindet sich die Pigmentierung wenigstens in Oralecken des Tergits ... speciosus, tricinctus

Lmb: "laterale Mesonotalbinden"

Prsc: "Auf dem anterioren Scutum wird der Raum vor dem Scutellum, der oft stärker pigmentiert ist, von Strenzke (1959) als praescutellares Dreieck (Prsc) bezeichnet."

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
