Hello friends,

First I thought Cistogaster sp. for the flies in the pictures:

and another specimen:

They were photographed in Hungary in a relatively arid oak forest.

Are these rather Gymnosoma, right?

Thanks a lot: Nikola

Definitely Gymnosoma but I wouldn't like to go further without a specimen :)

Thank you Chris,
But the first two differs from the third, right? I mean the orange pubescence on the thorax.

The first 2 are females, the last is male :)

Female is almost certainly clavatum
