Hello Armen (my fellow spider-man), I think that it is Chlorops. How large are they? I cannot judge the size because the photo appears to be magnified larger than 1:1 macro. Do you use bellows and extension tubes? maybe you just have a fantastic lens.

Anyway, I vote for Chlorops...

Hello my friend. Unfortunately I cannot tell you what kind of technic was used to make these shots, because they are not mine, but I assume extension tubes were used for this purpose :) I've mentioned the author in the very first post :)
Thank's for your response!

I'm sorry, I saw that you mentioned the author. I am very tired today. I spent the day dissecting and studying Pollenia mayeri. My mind is very tired.

I Maybe Dr. von Tschirnhaus will visit and offer and expert opinion.
I wish for you a Pleasant night, Armen.
