Hard to say. Females of Clytocerus lack the distinctive genus characters seen in males; this may well be a female. If it is a male the first antennal segment is too short for it to be a Clytocerus. (Boreoclytocerus is considered a subgenus of Clytocerus by most Psychodidae specialists). To me, the wing-shape looks most like Pneumia or a similar genus, but I can't say much for sure. These beasts are easier to ID without the hairs, and even then it is not always so straight-forward... |
