Hello together, found this couple yesterday on a rather cold and windy day in the woods close to Federow, Müritz Nationalpark, Germany. I think it's Tipula sp? Does anybody has a clue about the species?
Thanks lot,

Marc

My guess would be Pterelachisus subgenus. To go further=> genitalia needed

Thanks clovis - I haven't collected the specimen to check genitalia,
