Hello,

looks more like a Tipula to me (big palps, short neck).
Best regards,
Jürgen

Thank you, Jürgen, for your statement - sorry, but I stll think, it's a Limoniidae.
Please more comments.

It is Limoniidae subfamily Limnophilinae. Look at the veins in the distal part of the wing.

Thank you Jozef for your message Smile -
As you write "e.g." I meantime checked the threads of E. schranki in the Diptera.info-forum and found the facts of distinguishing L. schranki, L. arnoudi and L. pictipennis by Niels-Jan Dek (s. https://diptera.i...d_id=55034). I think "my" fly has a "black apical ring on the femora" like the picture in the referred thread. So I think it is L. pictipennis ...
Greetings Kuv

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
