Hello Forum,

one more fly from the alder marshland in Hagen (D) 175 m above sea level. This photo I took on Oktober 1st 2007.

Is it a Limoniidae? Is an ID possible?

Best wishes

Josef

Maybe again one of Savtshenkia or Pterelachisus? A had a similar one a few weeks ago, I just remeber!

This one is in Tipulidae and you are right it is in the genus Tipula, subgenus either Savtshenkia or Pterelachisus.
