On old oak stump in old-growth broadleaf forest, Jægerspris Nordskov, Denmark, 20 July 2022. Looks like a dung fly to me, but I cannot find any species of that family with darktipped femora like this one.

Trixoscelis sp. Heleomyzidae I think...

I think it is in the Sciomyzini.

I am also for Sciomyzini - perhaps Pherbellia sp.

Pherbellia annulipes, I think: black rings on mid and hind femur and tibia - wings without dark spots (P. nana)
from De Nederlandse Slakkendoders by Aat Barendregt.

Thank you alle, good people. While the last replies ticked in, I went though Steven Falk's albums with Pherbellia spp., and the characters mentioned by Eric are indeed quite obvious. :-) https://www.flickr.com/photos/63075200@N07/sets/72157678832574040/with/25883909607/
