Not Chironomidae. The hairs on the antennae are in distinct rings and the dististyle is very long and thin. I think I see the shadow of a proboscis so Culicidae. |

I think the shadow is of antenna. I went back to the same place and made new pictures I placed in a new thread. My idea is Tanytarsini Eugene |

If it has no proboscis, see Chaoborus. It is not Chironomidae. |

Thanks John, the Chaoborus I had seen in the same place were pale colored so I did not reconize : https://diptera.i...ost_308237
