Is it possible to know which genus could be this male Cecidomyiinae with that nodes order in antenna?

Ocelli absent. Tarsomere I much shorter than 2. Basal section of Rs usually absent or weaker than other veins--> CECIDOMYIINAE

[IBERIAN PENINSULA: CATALONIA: Girona province, Beuda, 400 masl, August the 22th, 2015]

Thanks for your reply

The antenna belongs to a male in supertribe Cecidomyiidi. There should be 12 sets of single+double nodes. The rest of the fly I can not identify. The legs are unusually long for Cecidomyiiinae, I do not see a short tarsomere 1, and the wing veins are very faint.

Many thanks, John, that's more help than I expected.
