I caught together with Rhamphomyia cinerascens 6 specimina of this fly today in Yerseke, the Netherlands. I think it is Rhamphomyia crassirostris or R. maculipennis. Can someone tell me the name? Pictures:

If the mid metatarsus has indeed long setae dorsally it is
maculipennis.

Today I found 129 in my malaise traps, of which 55 females and they are definitely R. maculipennis:
