Hello,

I photographed this fly near Monte Ocre (AQ), Italy, on October 4th 2021. I think it is a Syrphidae, but is it possible to identify its genus or species just from this photo?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

With bare eyes, wing bands and light-coloured knees, it must belong to Cheilosia caerulescens (m), https://www.flickr.com/photos/63075200@N07/albums/72157631437374368/
