Dear all,

by chance I found these tiny flies on a photograph. According to the flower, they should be smaller than 5mm.
Found on 10.07.2021 in Lower Saxony, Germany, near Eibeck, calcerous meadows.
Thanks a lot.

Best regards
Alex

The two specimens belong to different species. The one on the right certainly is not Thaumatomyia and my gut felling says the one on the left is not either.
