This very smal Chironomidae was found in a "light trapp" beginning of July just outside Stockholm, Sweden. Is it possible to say what genus it belongs to? I don't think it will be possible to get to species on the basis of these photos)

Many thanks for your help John.
I have a male of Procladius culiciformis, confirmed by barcode, from the same site. So it might be a female of that species - will be sent for barcode analysis next winter. Best Regards Ole
