Hi,
Might be something in the direction of female
Meigenia. No clue about the others you posted... Portuguese fauna is quite exotic for me.

thanks... so, being a female Meigenia I think it is unreliable the species name just by photos?... or this is not the case?..

I think the main problem is that the females of some species can be identified but with a few of the commonest species the females are unidentifiable at the moment so you always have a high chance of owning an "indet" female
Meigenia :D

Well, Chris, I hope Theo can turn out it a determined Meigenia :D
