Slovakia, Banska Bystrica, forested mountain valley, 16 May 2020, up to 10 mm
I found some pictures of the species on the web (also here https://diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=77517&highlight=Symmerus+annulatus&pid=324763), my specimen is slightly darker, especially thorax.
Thank you in advance
Matej

Wing venation does not match Keroplatidae, so no
Symmerus. They have no small trapezoid cell that is well visible in your pictures. Mycetophilidae have such wings, e.g.
Mycomya, see
http://www.kolumb...wing_e.htm. However, I am not an expert for this tricky family, sorry!
