Epistrophe melanostoma or maybe some other species in that genus!? From midwest Sweden in may 2006.

Looks like a Syrphus torvus to me. I see hairy eyes? |

Thanks Andre. It seems to be hairy when I enlarge the original photo. We see photos of S. torvus, S. vitripennis and maybe S. ribesii. Why don't we see species like S. rectus, S. admirandus, S. attenuatus or S. sexmaculatus!? Are they very rare? |

Rectus is rare in Europe. Others are rare in most parts of Europe, but not so rare in mountainous areas or in..... Scandinavia (like attenuatus and sexmaculatus)! So... you've got some work to do. Don't forget to collect them too  |
