LARGER
Found it on the ground, on small plants in a beech forest. 6.7.2012, N Hungary. Is this a Sciapus sp. female?
Thank you in advance!

It appears to be a female
Sciapus. It can't be keyed using the North European key without a clearer view of the tibiae and tarsi, and it could be a species not in that key.

Cf.
platypterus, based on antennal chaetotaxy (apparently second antennal segment has short ventral hairs only).
