Personnaly, I can recognize Anthomyiidae by experience, nethertheless, one can see the anal vein reaching the wing border on the female.
I have to disagree with the non-equal calypters. Only some genera (I think to Hydrophoria for example) have a lower calypter larger than upper one. Most of Anthomyiidae have small roundish equals calypters bordered with hairs (in the opposite of most Muscidae).
