 On 23th April 2025 I took pictures of this chironomidae in Den Helder, The Netherlands? Based on the genitalia I think it is a male natarsia punctata. Can someone please confirm this identification or tell which species is this? Thanks a lot.

Greetings,
Mario Renden

 Have a closer look at the venation - this is a male Chaoborus (Chaoboridae).

I would prefer not to receive any more messages from diptera.info signed by Paul... (Thread reply notification)... Could they be signed by ‘The diptera.info team’?
