very small (2-3 mm), very active, still moving, walking, darkgray with white socks on legs (not visible on pictures due to flash light). Sorry no chance for better pict.

Psychodidae are generally not identifiable from photographs.

Gunnar is right, but I dare to name the uniformly grey species without white wing marks "Psychoda spec.". |

The pale grey ones are usually Psychoda, but Philosepedon are superficially very similar before you look at the genitalia. 45 Psychodidae species is lower than expected for a Central European country. If you start collecting and preparing specimens you will probably find additions. |
