These flies, with the half of the size of a Drosophila, came massively to the bloom of Dracunculus vulgaris, one of these stinking flowers that imitate carrion.

Can they be identified? Thanks!

Probably Meoneura (Carnidae)

Thanks a lot Tony!
I assume that ID by images or location/date is impossible, right?

Your assumption is correct! :)
