Hello!

I'm pretty sure, the male is a Muscina levida, but what is the female? Also Muscina (pale tip at scutellum end) or another genus (seems too gray for Muscina)? Phaonia?
Both flies found today at our house (Ostwestfalen/Germany), both about 10 mm.

I think you are right: 1. Muscina, 2. Phaonia
