In September 2011 I took a foto of an animal sitting on the downside of the leaf of a hazelnut. The pic was taken in Bavaria. A searched and - I was not successful. First I thought, it's an aphid, but the wings are not in right position. Size maximum 3mm.

I hope that anyone knows this tiny ???

Thanks and Ciao

Thanks for your welcome, but at the moment it seems that my pics are not welcome ;)

The size is 96 kb, the name 11092606k without space. I really don't know whats the mistake ?

Looks like a sciarid fly (Black Fungus Gnat) killed by Entomophthora or similar fungus.
