xanthopus?
Maybe xanthopus, maybe the male to your ?lobatus from the same location. The male lobatus is, as far as I know, undescribed.

Probably Bibio
This is probably Bibio but I want to see a front tibia to confirm. Bibio has big spurs on the end of the front tibia. Dilophis has rows of spines.

The big eyes and genitalia make it a male.

this is a bibionid
Procedural hint for the future: Please post flies to the Diptera page HERE, ok? [i moved some of your stuff there] This will get you IDs faster, as our dipterists look for BG work there rather than in ID Request
