Tetanocera (Sciomyzidae) - the tarsal colour is right and the diagonal stance on the leaf is characteristic for this genus.  [only joking about the stance!] Tony ---------- Tony Irwin |

Tetanocera was also my first thought! Or perhaps a scatophagid.

Jorge, I think your ID as Stomoxys calcitrans is correct!

As for ID - Andrey Ozerov working on collected fly - it is Nanna articulata or Nanna multisetosa (syn. of N.flavipes, but Andrey think that it was uncorrectly synonymized by Siftner).

Couple days I helped in Nanna observation. I can say, that it is almost impossible to get such series of photos!  Natalia |
