Hello dear Diptera experts and fans,

This is my first post here, I apologize in advance for any mistakes. I would be very thankful if you could help me identify a few Dipterans I met in my region. I am sorry for the quality of pictures, it's all from smartphone.

Here we go with the first. Kornelimünster, near Aachen (NRW, western Germany border).

iNaturalist observation (includes precise location and date): https://www.inatu...s/24318582

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

it is a Scathophaga sp.. Difficult to tell more from this photo (only that it is not S. stercoraria).
