On 2th July 2025 I took pictures of this chironomidae in Den Helder, The Netherlands. It was attracted to light. I think it is synendotendipes dispar. Can someone please confirm this or tell me whether synendotendipes it right? Thanks a lot.

Greetings,

Synendotendipes dispar is supposed to have a dark adbomen. If the fore tarsus has a beard your fly may be Endochironomus tendens.
