on 2014-07-06 I found those flies on a stump of a tree in a forest near Marburg. They fought for 34 min. then one male fled. Is it Clusiodes ruficollis?

On your pictures and in the film three pairs of dorsocentral and fronto-orbital bristles each seems to be present on specimens. I think that this should be C. albimanus.
