Hello!

This one looks a bit like Chlorichaeta tuberculosa in the gallery. At our house wall (northwest Germany) yesterday. The problem: that species should not occur here in Germany. So what could it be? Length only 1.5-2 mm.

Head less sharp, but hindlegs better visible.

Ah, thanks! Very interesting! I did not look into that family - although I had this species already in early April last year. :)
