dear forum, I've heard that female anthomyia are mutch more difficult than males, the last few days I spotted lots of them here in Rotterdam.
One of them has 3 spots on scutellum the other 2 spots.
so i guess one of them could be pluvalis and one porcellaris, but I need again your help!
thanks people for every suggestion.
also the spots behind the head are diffrent in size!

The first 2-spotted one is a muscid, Limnophora tigrina as the third one, the second (3-spotted) is Anthomyia sp. (all females).

Hmm, first and third photo show both a female Limnophora tigrina (Muscidae).
The second could be a A. procellaris.

first - Muscidae - some Limnophora.
