Hello!

A striking, large (8-9 mm) Mycetophilid (?) with shiny black wings from our house wall yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany) Can it be determined more closely? Thanks!

i think this species or something closer i have seen today.
made some photo (not succeeded to collect that one), i will come back with that next days... now i'm on the "road".
i post this because maybe is something useful for ID. the exemplar was hovering for couple of minute on the bark of a Pinus nigra. he just run on the bark, under the bark... don't know for what.

Thanks! We have no bigger pine trees here, but a few small (1.5-2 m) garden pines near the house.
Best regards,
Jürgen
