Anyone recognize these? About 1.5 mm length. Taken at a UV light on July 3 (Indiana, USA). Thanks!

?Ceratopogonidae - something like
Stilobezzia (
Eukraiohelea)
elegantula, though I don't think that species occurs as far north as Indiana.

Thanks Tony.
I just ran these through the Ceratopoginae key in Manual of Nearctic Diptera, and they come out closer to Parabezzia (no spines on any femur, palps 4 segmented, C of female extending to wing tip).
However, I don't think they are Parabezzia....
