 No, O. florum is a much smaller fly. Besides, I think these images show differnt species and even families. Pic 1 and 3 are Sciomyzidas, possibly Tetanocera. Pic 2 shows a possible Dryomyzid.

 Thank you both for your scrutiny and help. Effectively, those 3 pictures were taken at the same spot at a few days intervals, and I wrongly assumed it was the same fly. Regards,
