This Diptera was found outside Stockholm Sweden end of April 2025. Wing around 3 mm. I'm not sure where it "belongs" but perhaps a Mycetophilidae? I guess that it's not possible to say what species it is but perhaps what subfamilly?

This is a female belonging to the family Sciaridae. Probably impossible to identify from a picture.

Many thank's Jan. I will save the specimen and run a DNA analysis later on to see if I can get a match. If so I will update this "post"
Best Regards Ole
