Picture 1 and 2 are (in my opinion!) a species of Heleomyzidae. Picture 3 is really a Scathophagidae I think. You can see that this last one has a lot more bristles on it's legs than the others!

At least one important reason why none of these flies are Sciomyzidae is, that these have strong vibrissae, below, between mouth- and eye-edge.
Sciomyzidae never have vibrissae like that.
Nice pictures though... hope Gerard has helped you get to the right direction! :-)

The first two are Suillia (Heleomyzidae) and the 3rd is a scatophagid, probably Scatophaga.

Yes, you are right. There is no humeral seta on this heleomyzid and that makes it Suillia.
