Thread subject: Diptera.info :: 2 Muscina spp.

Today I photographed two different flies near our house at at Leerdam, Netherlands. I believe they are both Muscina, but of different species.
I think the one on the first photo must be M. levida: all dark, except for the orange tip to the scutellum.
The one on the second and third photo I think must be M. prolapsa.

Could anyone confirm or correct my identifications? Thanks in advance!
