Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Ptychoptera contaminata?

Hi,
This couple I met on a pond in a village on the Baltic Island of Usedom in August. The poor girl was in double trouble: not only were more than one male interested in her, she was also heavily parasitized by mite nymphs.
I suppose the species is Ptychoptera contaminata; would you please confirm or correct?
Thanks, Sundew
