Hi, Here is a male Chironomid from Františkovy Lázně (Czechia), 14 March 2014. The hairy legs, especially the feet, are striking. Does anybody know the genus or even species? Thanks for suggestions, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [251.01Kb] |

I think this is Anatopynia plumipes (Tanypodinae)

That is an excellent tip, and A. plumipes is a very appropriate name! Many thanks, dear Tony, what would I do without you... |
