Hi together,

in this case I´m quite uncertain with family-ID

-Narrow eye bridge, bell-shaped M1-M2, ocelli >>> Sciaridae

but: stem of M1 and M2 about half as long as these, no apical bristles or spurs at tibiae >>> :o

Might this be Sciarosoma?

Size: 2,5mm

What about Cecidomyiidae? They often have such antennas.
