Maybe Procladius
This picture seems to show an M-Cu crossvein and the fork in vein Cu well after the crossvein. That is rare in midges. It might be Procladius(1), which comes in a variety of colors. I'm not sure.

My image is just too poor and I am not experienced enough to conclude anything from my image.
