Hello,

these flies were on the flower of a Cirsium sp. The size was about 5 mm, maybe less.

Best regards,

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.
