Hi,
Some weeks ago this Chironomid sat on our house wall. Does it belong to genus Chironomus? Thanks for any comment, Sundew

It may be a Glyptotendipes. Can you add a dorsal closeup of abdominal segments 2-6 and/or a picture showing the shape of the front of the pronotum (which is hidden in the dorsal shot)?
