Hello! These small (8-11 mm) Limoniids (?) are numerous in our garden at the moment (Ostwestfalen/Germany). Is it possible to determine it further? Thanks in advance!

Based on the combined characters visible from these two images: 14 segments of antennae will put it in the Tribe Limoniini, and Sc1 ending opposite the origin of Rs would put it in Limonia (Dicranomyia) group, or as Dicranomyia (Dicranomyia) sp. in the current catalogue of Palaearctic Diptera. |

Many thanks! Especially also for explaining why you put it there  (one always learns from it).
