Not Anisopodidae but one of the aquatic Empididae. I cannot recall those very well anymore (been years since I last identified them) but it could be a 'nivalis' species. Wink
You could include it with the mycetophilids...

Looks more like Clinocera. Wiedemannia has a much longer head when looked at from the side
