 Sciaridae (female) is correct? Region Malá Fatra Terchová about 500 m above sea level. Thank you very much for your help. I made a photo of 18.08.2011.

 Not Sciaridae. Possibly Catocha.

 The only species of Catocha in your region is the widespread C. latipes Haliday 1833.

See Manual of Nearctic Diptera vol. 1 p. 260 fig. 19 for a wing drawing of a species now considered a synonym.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
