Thanks for the informative link - the wings of this female resemble the Osterbroek image of T. gimmerthali, I think. Due to the resolution I cannot compare it to the wing of your fly. If it's not the same venation, your cranefly could be indeed the female of the probably Lazio-endemic Tipula (Vestiplex) fragilicornis of which I could not find a reliable image in the web.
