Hello

I found this midge in my greenhouse at Bexbach/Germany. Is this Sylvicola fenestralis?

Thanks Volker

Could also be Sylvicola cinctus.

The posterior margin of the apical wingspot is distinct. That would lead to zetterstedti (most likely) or baechlii (unlikely).

Yes Paul, you are totally right. I should have noted that:(. I have not found S. zetterstedti yet myself.
