Hi,
Here comes a very small fly from Austria, Tyrol, Niederthai (1.500 m), seen in last August. My macrolens was hardly able to get good pics. The little one should be a Ceratopogonid female - can possibly be said more (I am afraid not...)?
Many thanks, Sundew

Forcipomyia or possibly Dasyhelea. The white spot over the end of R is found in F. bipunctata, and possibly many related species.
