Hi,
Is it possible to find a family for this tiny fly sitting on the lid of our dust bin on 28 March? What about Ceratopogonidae?
(You see I still use my small camera though dreaming of a better macro lens...)
Thanks and regards, Sundew

Hmm... I missed the typical wing venation, but with enormous magnification I can guess it. Ok, Sciaridae then, they are rather frequent at the moment. Many thanks, Gabor.
