Hello, these flies were on the flower of a Cirsium sp. The size was about 5 mm, maybe less. Best regards, Karola Germany, North-Rhine Westphalia, Mülheim, June 23rd, 2021 Karola attached the following image: ![]() [45.43Kb] Edited by Karola on 22-02-2023 21:25 |

A fungus gnat (Sciaroidea) and it looks like one of the long-beaked genera. I don't know which you have in Germany. |

Thank you. As I understand Sciara analis and S. hemerobioides cannot be seperated by appearance, so it could be either. Karola |
