Thank you very much! I know they are difficult to determine from photos, so I save it for Iain MacGowan.

Hi Morten
Excellent photos as usual! With dense eye hairs and all black legs this is a
Chaetolonchaea species - a genus not previously known from Norway. The species is most probably
C. pallipennis - I will confirm when I see the specimen.
