Netherlands, today

My attempt (though female might be unreliable):
Cross-vein MCu absent?, no marine (no Telmatogetoninae), leg ratio > 1.0 -> Chironominae?
Squama bare, wing embrane lacking macrotrichia (at least not at tip?), front and hind tibia without any spurs -> Graceus?


Very small one, so unsure about some of the details.

Subfamily Orthocladiinae. Leg ratio is well under 1.0.
