Yesterday I took this pic near Luebeck in Northern Germany. Many of these were visiting blooming Achillea millefolium & similar - any idea as to its ID?

Thanks & best wishes

Hello Chris,

Welcome to the site.

Your fly is Episyrphus balteatus (Syrphidae, hence I moved it to the correct forum) and last two weeks I have seen it incredibly common in the extreme south of the Netherlands where we were camping. They appeared to be very anxious to enter our tent to let us know that they were all around.
Paul

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
