With so little dusting on th efrons, I think you are in the scutatus-complex. I would vote for Platycheirus aureolateralis (m). But I have never seen the species myself, so you must check up, or wait for more comments, https://www.flickr.com/photos/63075200@N07/albums/72157629990815209/

Thanks for your answer Karsten.
I think I have one more, but bad, picture of same speciemen.
