Hello everybody !

Is this Diptera a Chironomidae? Can we go farther with its colors or golden reflections and its wing-shaped black alien motifs in the black shape of flower of lily (resembling the ancient royal french symbol) ?

It is Chironomidae, but not one I recognise.

Some Polypedilum have those black spots.

Thanks you, Tony and John ! :)

I found this photo that resembles it, noted for the species Polypedilum scalaenum. (Extract on this page)
