Female is a Mucidae with large palpi you use to find...:)
Male is Hydrophoria (I think H. lancifer, but I'm not the specialist).

hi Stephane,

I can see now, it is a Phaonia palpata!
It was quite small and between other Anthomyiidae I was mislead..
The femur looks very dark but I've seen in other pictures some braunish tints.
And the palps are wide comparing to antho's with large palps.
(And the arista plumosa, some Antho's can have these too)

good watch,
and thanks again ;)
