Hello!

At first I thought of some Ceratopogonid, but on a closer look this 3-4 mm midge from yesterday night (Ostwestfalen/Germany) seems more like a Mycetophilid to me (?). Unfortunately I have only this photo, the animal was permanently flying around.

Thanks! I see, there are 12 (14) species here in Germany.
