Hello!

I have got 2 photos of two different flies, which were 10 mm long and taken in South Tirole, Austria.

Fly 1:

Fly 2:

Can you say me the species or the genus names of these flies?

Thank you very much, Martin...

Well, you may give us some time, especially over the weekend. Wink
The first I think is a Muscidae, but hopefully someone with more knowledge of Calyptrates will come by a add his/her comment (Kahis?).
The second (I thought there was a different picture first, but I am not certain) makes me think of Rhigia campestris. I hope one of the true syrphidologists will confirm this.

You are quite right Paul,
This is indeed Rhingia campestris!

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.
