Thank you, Roger.
I'll admit right away that Limoniidae was an option that I should have included in my original question, but I missed it.
Now for me, Trichoceridae and Limoniidae look equally well possible.
I'd be glad to learn why it should be Limoniidae and not Trichoceridae.
Thanks again,
Gert

Symplecta.

European Trichoceridae have short vein A2. Nearly all Tipulidae sensu lato have long A2. Typical Symplecta can be recognized by S-shaped A2.

Also, Trichoceridae have ocelli. This fly does not.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
