The photo was taken: 3rd of April, 2010, wet soil, East Bohemia, CZ
Is this fly really the species of Anthomyiidae? What genus?

It seems to have 4 dorso centrals ...
So must be Egle ciliata / brevicornis female, but the acrostichals are small and not broad (strange)
I will look into it again....

Joke,
what are then the following flies? I have always been convinced that Egle ciliata f looks like the
specimen seen on the first photo and moreover what are the two ones (second and third)?
Thank for the ressolving this problem.

the second and third flies are - as for my opinion - identical PM

in the inflorescence of Salix (mainly caprea) trees, where their larvae live

I made a mistake about the acrostichals....they are alright :D
They are all Egle species.
But if they are Egle ciliata or Egle brevicornis (the only two species with 4 dc on thorax).....i can't tell
They are very simular.
So ...Egle ciliata / brevicornis
(the first two seems different, but probable just different lighting when taken the photo or a fresh emerged species and not on full dark color yet , but nice sharp photos!)
