Are these these three images showing Lauxaniidae flies? |

They probably are, although I cannot be entirely certain about the third one.

It is just what I wanted to ask you, Paul. Third one looks like Neuroctena (=Dryomyza). Is it what you think about? Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Well, it is very difficult to say without a size reference.

Thx Paul for this and others. I think all these flies were middle-sized, 5-6 mm. In theory thereis a single species of Dryomizidae occuring in Japan, a rather common one, and it is a real giant compared to these. |

Yes, it must have been a very unlucky dryomyzid if it got to be only this size. Lauxaniidae seems the most likely, then.

Still difficult to say, but reddish eyes and the colour pattern remind me of some species of Drosophila. The necessary details, however, are not visible.
