Your first picture shows a female Dideopsis aegrotus, your second is a female Asarkina sp. Greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

Gerard Pennards, I think N.2 is the Asarkina ericetorum (Fabricius)

Again, dried & properly mounted specimens will help to reduce confusion and help identification

Yes, I also think Martin is right, nr. 2 looks more like a Episyrphus after a second look! What species of Episyrphus do you have in that region? Greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

Ok, I am sorry i am wrong. Gerard Pennards, only Episyrphus balteata was recorded in that region. Edited by zhengxialin on 07-07-2011 15:15 |
