Maybe others will correct me, but all of these are the commonest species ScatHophaga stercoraria. This species seems to be especially common and easy to find early and late season. And the size of the fly as well as its coloration seems to be quite variable.

Hi Gabor, thanks for help, also thanks for pointing me to that correct "H"  anyway for now that smaller specimens (the last 2 photo) will remain without name (for me appear two small to be same species and specially female... at least from appearence). cosmln |

Cosmin, do not doubt, all flies at this thread are S.stercoraria. Nikita See also: http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=5422&pid=24302#post_24302 about this species Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |
