Hi Volkmar,

it's a Sericomyia silentis male.
Best regards,
Jürgen

I would say Sericomyia silentis, though the picture is not ideal. Do you have a dorsal view? Are there some bogs or wet places around?

Regards, Matej
 
Volkmar
Thank you very much for your supports, Jürgen and Matej.
@ Matej : I could only take one picture than it flew away. There are wet places around, a brook and bog.
Best regards Volkmar
