Hi ! A friend of mine would like to know the ID of that midge (# 5 mm) seen in France near Paris on 13 july 2013. Is Chironomus (male) possible ? Thanks for help evdb attached the following image: [67.84Kb] Edited by evdb on 14-07-2013 08:15 Eugene |

Chironominae. Overall color resembles Paratendipes albimanus. The short R5 and M ending in wing tip are inconsistent with that species. |
