What genus could this small ceciomyd (body 1,5-2 mm) be.

Photos from 30 april 2013 Skällsjön 62 N, E 17 Ångermanland, Sweden.

Thanks for your help in advance

It resembles Lestodiplosis but may have too many flagellomeres. Almost all Cecidomyiidi have 12, cylindrical in female and divided in male for 24 apparent flagellomeres.
