Good morning, i have been struggling to find what these two creatures are ever since they came tumbling down on our holiday home terrace table in Normandy, France in late june 2014.

Biting midge and prey | 2014-06-27 20:47 | Beaumont-le-Roger, Normandy, France
Hilly, wooded suburban area on the edge of the Risle river valley and stretches of acres of crop.

I'm especially eager to find out what kind of midge this is. I let it rest for a few years and today i found this group of biting midges... could it be Clinohelea (syn. Ceratopogon)?








Hope to hear from you

best regards,
