 Muscidae_Thricops semicinereus(female) is correct? Region Malá Fatra Terchová about 600 m above sea level. Thank you very much for your help. I made a photo of 24.07.2011.

 It seems to be Hydrotaea meridionalis with this amount of yellow on the abdomen...

 I don't think it is meridionalis:
1. Reliable records of meridionalis (males) as far as I know are from Crimea and Caucasus.
2. Females of this group at my opinion are hardly distinguishable.
3. Females of the most common species - borussica at my opinion may be without shining spots on tergite III. As well, females of other related species may be with these spots. Spots are not taxonomic character, but a matter of female's age and present on aged females.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
