Hello!

These flies are mostly (but not only) visitors of rotten fruits at the moment (Ostwestfalen/Germany). I think the one on the first two pics (3 mm) belongs to Drosophila (D. immigrans again?).
The one on pic 3 and 4 (2.5 mm) should be the lately featured Scaptomyza pallida (?). Thanks for confirmation or correction!

Thank you very much! I think, I won't read that sentence very often ;-).
