Hello!

Originally I only wanted to take a picture of this Morellia (size of a normal house fly). The other Diptera I only noticed later at home.
Is the small fly to the left a Chloropid? I guess the even smaller ones at the bottom and to the right are Sciarids (?). Found on September-18 on a meadow near a hedge (northwest Germany).

I would agree with the chloropid. Thw smaller two, I think, are Ceratopogonidae.

Morellia sp. is correct.
I doubt that it is possible to say more...
