Dear experts,

This is my first post here and therefore I´m at risk to handle the photo attachment incorrectly. I tried to preview after adding a jpeg-image without seeing the photo, So there is a risk you cant see it either.

I´m managing two malaise traps within the Swedisk Malaise Trap Project 2.0 in virgin landrise taiga forest at Holmo island in NE Sweden (63.8N/20.9E). There is plenty of dead (Picea abies, Salix caprea and Betula pubescens) wood, boulders and open outcrop aswell as a mesotrof lake nearby. In the December catch I found several bugs of (what I believe) Mycetophilidae. Now I try to ask for help with possible ID.

First, am I right by thinking of Mycetophila here? Can I go further?
Thankful for any help.
