The last candidate should be a small alpine species ... Are there to many?

yes, there are many
This looks like Bibio clavipes, which agrees with autumn.

Thank you for your reply, Theo! Autumn in the lowlands? But in this altitute August is like spring or early summer. Greetings Frank

Well, my ID was cautious ('looks like'), I have little experience in high mountains. Bibio clavipes is definitely very common indeed in second half of september at 2000 m. altitude.
