Sorry, not yet. Caliptrata fly.

Sure, you will find Dolichopodidae tomorrow!

I will try. :) Mud is the solution. :))
Today, here, temperatures arose above 40 ?C (temperatures in Portugal will be, in general, above 40?C until next Wednesday! It seems we are in Sahara desert... these temperatures aren't usual.)!
I saw asilidae, anthomyiidae, syrphidae, tachinidae flies everywhere. Wasps and bees... a lot of them... specially, beautiful Ammophila sp. I saw Hogna radiata, Oxyopes sp.; (spider species) and some thomisids, and other lycosids.

Just sit still 5 min near any water source. Sea shore is OK too, goat drinking piont too...

I think the larger fly is Lispe (Muscidae).
I think the smaller fly is lunch! :)
