Hi,
Yesterday I watched two small grey flies at a small artificial pond. The spatulate palps disclosed genus Lispe. The male, who had two mutilated legs, showed peculiar front basitarsi, so I think L. tentaculata should be the right species. The female was more difficult to identify, as the characters given in Nikita's key (https://www.resea...on_ecology) did not completely match. Nevertheless I tend to consider the female fly as the same species. Do you see any serious contradictions? It is my first Lispe, so I am grateful for any help! The location was southwestern Germany, 20 km west of Stuttgart.
Thanks, Sundew

Here comes the male:
