The second one is Laphria flava, a robberfly (Asilidae).

The first one is a syrphid - a hoverfly - but one unknown to me. Genus Mesembrius?

First one is a female Merodon, it resembles a bit merodon avidus, but that's not sure.
Where did you take the picture of this fly?

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
