I think this is Chironomidae. Can anyone give it a full name? From central lowland France (la Brenne), 1 September 2008, swept from a mown haymeadow, 4mm, female. Susan R Walter attached the following image:  [44.8Kb] Edited by Susan R Walter on 16-11-2008 16:19 Susan |

This is a female, and I do not think this can be identified by ANYONE, unless this is a very special species. To my knowledge there are no keys for Chironomid females.
