Hi, I have some very poor pics of an interesting Sciarid. I didn't have good equipments when I found these little Sciarids running about on the forest floor (Debrecen, E-Hungary). Maybe somebody recognises them. The first one seems to just have emerged from pupa, but on the other pic, a Sciarid found at the same place and time, it can be seen that the wings are quite short. None of them could fly, but ran very quickly. Could this be a brachypterous species?

Sciaridae is correct, but not a brachyptreous one. The wings go wet and stuck to each other.
