Hello! A 5 mm midge from a spider web some nights ago at our house (northwest Germany). Maybe Macrocerinae?

Thanks, Paul and Andrius! There are many Trichoceridae in the moment (below), but this seemed to be rather different. But that may be due to the unnatural posture.

You are welcome The last one also looks like T. annulata - dark bands on the abdomen are also visible as in the first one. The second picture has no clear distinguishable features visible, so this would be simply Trichocera sp. Andrius |
