Mountains near Gombe, SW Turkey, alt. 2000 m. What can be said about these two flies? I thought the one with mottled wings might be a Platystomatidae, is more narrow ID possible?

Marked wings: Platystomatidae; more blackish fly with clearish wings: Ulidiidae.

The grey mottle-winged fly is a Platystoma sp., I tried to do my best, but it ended up in an unrevised group of species. The shiny black fky with hya;line, marginally darkened wing is Ulidia cf. ruficeps.
