First two photos = Scatella - a small but quite difficult genus.
Next pair = probably Psilopta polita. This species is metallic green - I guess the strong blue hue in the pics is reflections of a blue sky.

Thank you for both first one and this couple of Ephydridae.
Nikita
P.S. In reality Psilopta polita was as strong metallic green as you discribed

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
