Attracted to a light trap (black and actinic light - 6W) in a riparian forest near the coast. 19 Sept, 2012

I never saw a fly with such long antennae, very pretty!

Yep, Macrocera sp. Longest antennae of the fungus gnats. What country did you sample this in?

Thank you! It looks much like the internet photos, it's true, I forgot to put the country, the picture was taken in the northwest of Spain (Galicia) ;)
