Hello all,
This Cranefly was observed on May 26th in a damp wood (Bois de Lauzelle, Louvain la neuve, Belgium.)
I have a hunch it might be a limoniidae ??
Any thoughts ?
Thanks in advance
Philippe

It look like a
limonia, maybe phragmitis.
Do you have a better picture of the nervation?

I think this some Limnophilinae, perhaps Euphylidorea (dispar) or Phylidorea fulvonervosa.

Thanks for the reply. Here is a close-up, I hope it's legible enough.

Apparently the stigma is very faint; this character points towards P. fulvonervosa.
