Who is able to identify this Tipulid?
The picture was posted on the photographyforum http://natuurfotografie.scene24.net/
by Bart Vancoppenolle (Belgium) for identification. I gave it a try but failed because the picture doesn't show all the features that seem to be necessary for identification. I shall ask the photographer for the additional information and post it here as soon as he has given this.
We really hope someone can help because we have become pretty curious ;)
Kind regards,
Loek Gerris

This one actually is a female ptychopterid in the family Ptychopteridae and genus Ptychoptera.
