Looks like Chironomidae to me again, but male!? :)

Male Chaoboridae. The antenna plumes of Chironomidae are not organized into distinct rings, and Chironomidae very rarely hold their wings flat over the abdomen.

...and thanks to Sara, Roger and John for your contribution to the Nematocera topics!! I don't know about them and I will keep it in mind, if I find more pictures, that these species also can be determined.
