Hello,

I photographed this fly in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on November 4th 2023. I think it is a Chironomidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Thank you John! What features should I photograph in order to be able to tell the difference between the two subfamilies?

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.
