The title is explicit. Tiny (2 - mm) black, active flies all over a window yesterday. Same thing to-day. As the weather was warm, we had other windows open, and it is not clear to me where from the swarm originated (indoors ? outdoor ?). Identification suggestions ? Pictures were kept large for details to be visible, but they are strongly compressed not to be a nuisance on loading.    Many thanks to our experts.

Anapausis seems to be correct. A. soluta is, I think the commonest of the lot but with the illustrations I cannot confirm the identity.
