Hello!
Three flies from tree trunks and leaves, found yesterday in Ostwestfalen/Germany. Is it possible to go closer than family level? Thanks!
The first one (about 10 mm) perhaps a
Helina sp.?
The second one was only 8 mm and more slender:
Last but not least a 9 mm beastie with a red abdomen on Salix:

I think the top and bottom ones might be
Phaonia spp but I can't be at all sure.

Thanks! I already thought the red one could be
Phaonia rufiventris, but it appeared rather small and perhaps too red (not orange).
