Psychoda sp. There are many species in this genus, which are very similar, and only distinguishable for a handful of people with the right expertise. P. alternata, which inhabits the drain water, is probably the most likely candidate if the midge was caught near habitation. Gabor Keresztes Japan Wildlife Gallery Carpathian Basin Wildlife Gallery |
