This was a small to middle sized syrphid, not very common around here. |

Possibly Eumerus sp? Where is Gerard, I have not seen him here for ages. |

Hehe, Gerard has to make his living doing field work this summer. After that it is a holiday. He might well be on that holiday right now, so expect him back in the not too distant future. And, well, I was wondering about Eumerus, too. Those hind tarsi should be characteristic, one would think. Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |

The white-pilose hind tarsi are found in the males of a couple of Eumerus species - argyropus and flavitarsis, but argyropus has spots only on tergite three, so this a male flavitarsis. Cute fly!
