Sorry for spamming with those flies, but have no idea how to id them with females and can't find any online accessible key. From threads I read that their long palpi are a good sign but is that actually true for iding them?
Yesterday, 21.04, on the car, Moscow suburb.

If an
Egle has more than 3 postsutural dorsocentrals it belongs to the
Egle brevicornis species group, which includes
ciliata. In North America
E. ciliata can be identified by head shape. You have one additional species of the group in Europe and I do not have Michelsen's revision.
