Hi! On May 20th, I observed this hover fly on a bush next to a path in vineyards north of Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg. Can it be identified? Thank you very much in advance. Best wishes Ina Edited by inasiebert on 22-05-2020 08:23 |

hm, why can't this be X. dives? Yellow pleura near the halteres and the wing tip might be darkened (although it is a male).
