Please, I need help to know if these flies are really Ommatius.
If confirmed that both are Ommatius, can anybody say which are its species?

Top fly is Ommatius sp.; bottom fly is Mallophora sp.

Each of these two genera have many species; specimens should be collected and submitted to experts for full identification.
