Southern Germany, 21.05.20, agriculture country with low bushes at a small creek.
I know there are many Psychodidae sp. and I am no expert, but could this be Psychodidae fusca?
I found the following Refs. to differentiate P. fusca and P. auriculata:
1. P. fusca https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripsychoda_fusca
2. P. auriculata http://www.kolumbus.fi/esko.viitanen/peripsychoda_auriculata_e.htm

I can not see the difference in the gallery picture:

Is it possible to see the difference for the unknown species, to say it is P. fusca? Or is the picture not good enough and one would need a proper picture from below the wing against light?

Peripsychoda's are difficult. The last vein is a bit curved and so it could be P. auriculata. But its very subtle. And I do not know if there are more species overthere, besides fusca and auriculata.

Thank you Weia. So it is probably better to leave it as Peripsychoda sp.

Thanks Weia. Interesting work. Would you see a fit for my species?

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
