Hello!

These 6-8 mm flies were numerous on walls and tree trunks in the last few days (Ostwestfalen/Germany). Again the everlasting question: Anthomyiids or Muscids? Thanks in advance!

I'd say yes, both flies are Anthomyiidae.

Thanks again - although that destroys my hope that they eventually could be identified further... Wink
Best regards,
