Northern Germany, Schleswig-Holstein, Neu-Lankau near Mölln, cultivated field right by the Elbe-Lübeck-Canel, at Beta vulgaris, length of the midge: 6.5 mm. Outsidephotos: kuv, 7th of August 2023. I could not find such a midge either in the Diptera-Gallery nor in the threads. Comparing some pictures of the family I think it is a female. Please help to get the ID.

Hello,

possibly something like Leia subfasciata? But that is only a layish guess.
Best regards,
Jürgen

Hi Jürgen, thank you very much for your guess. But I (amateur) can't say anything to that idea. So I'll change headline - still hoping that perhaps I get the ID.

Hi Jürgen,
after asking an expert I got a private message:" ... This gnat is Leia fascipennis, a common species, which is often found on tree foliage. Most Leia including subfasciata have some dark markings on the abdomen ..."

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
