Genitalia resemble those of M. flava but I have too little experience to say it is that species definitely. Jan can probably say more.

Yes, it is Mycomya, but difficult to say more from the photos. If you have the specimen, you can use the monograph by Vaisanen, see here: http://www.online-keys.net/sciaroidea/add01/Vaisanen_1984.pdf |

Thank you for this document, Jan.  I tried to use this one, but I'm not good at identifying ...

I am unable to read the genitalia ... All I can do is this picture of the ventral view (if I'm not mistaken).  Jean-Jacques PORTENEUVE : France : Lunel-Viel : 34400 : 11/12/2016 Altitude : 11 m - Taille : Insecte : 5 mm Réf. : 196592 Caracal |
