Shock Katka, you can correct me any time when it comes to Lauxaniidae, but this cannot be Lauxania, certainly not at 1 mm, virtually bare legs and an enlarged shiny ocellar triangle...

Because of the discussion, I'll change the title again (sorry).


Looking at the Oscinella sp. in the gallery, and the comment, it might be Oscinella maura?

Oscinella maura rather than O. frit because the latter lacks the conspicuous white arista.

Without any doubt: Oscinella maura (Fallén, 1820) [junior synonym Chlorops albiseta Meigen, 1830), Chloropidae. Larval substrate are the shoots of Dactylis glomerata (Poaceae). The larvae destroy the vegetation point. White aristae occur in many genera of Chloropidae, either in only some few species of a genus or in all species of a genus.
