Hello!

Two 7-8 mm long grey flies from yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany). The first one should belong to genus Anthomyia. But is the one on pic 2 and 3 also an Anthomyiid, or is it a Muscid? It reminds me of Coenosia tigrina when seen on pics. Thanks for any hints!

I think first one is a mail Anthomyiia, the second is a Muscid, but rather Phaoniinae, not Coenosiinae.

Lower two are Helina laetifica, I think.
