Hello,

Here is a beautiful green male Chironomid (as a matter of fact, assembled from two photos).

Any idea about a genus?

yes. :D See the gallery. This fits precisely on Stenochironomus sp. The species.. I don?t know. :(
Yesterday I saw spectacular red chironomids. ;)

Jorge,

Thanks for pointing me to the gallery.
For such family, I didn't even checked the gallery.
My bad.

Jorge,

Looking twice at your Stenochironomus cf. gibbus in the Gallery, I find it has spotted wings. Mines are totally clear.
