I photographed this fly today, 4 november, in Amstelveen, the Netherlands. I've no clue as to what it can be. Any suggestion welcome!

I am not familiar at all with Muscidae, but at first sight it appears to me to be a Helina sp. But I may be terribly mistaken.

This looks very much like a Phaonia fly I photographed some time ago. But I am just a beginner, I could be wrong.

This is a muscid, but in the subfamily Coenosiinae. I believe it is Coenosia tigrina

Thanks! Is it sure enough to submit it to the Galleries?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think if it's not tigrina, it won't be long before someome corrects it! ;)
