The first two are indeed Rhamphomyia females, possibly R. spinosa. The bottom one is Hilara. For me virtually impossible to identify from pictures, especially from the Alps.

Frank sent some specimens on alcohol. The Rhamphomyia female is R. luridipennis, of the R. albosegmentata group. In the tube was also a male (no picture here) and a damaged male specimen of another species of the same group (for example the genitalia were missing).

Thank you very much Paul! I have 5 photos of this specimen. It?s possible, that there have been a lot of similar Empididae and I tried to collect a male too. By the way: I suggest to construct more stable flies, which can be collected with a beetle exhaustor  Thanks for the other ids too. Photos for the gallery will be submittet asap. Best regards Frank |
