Hello!

I'm not sure where to put this Bibionidae male from a hedge (northwest Germany). Not very big, not too small...

It looks very odd indeed.

IF the flash is not playing enormous dirty tricks to my eye, this must be the male of Bibio venosus.

Great find

Many thanks, Theo! Unfortunately this is already the picture with least reflections I have...
