Hello everyone,

I found this hoverfly from the genus Cheilosia on April 18th in the Black Forest, south-west Germany. The size was about 10 mm. Can you determine their species?

Thanks and Greetings,
Siggi

Hi Karsten,

thanks for your help. Do you think I should better put a "cf" in front of the species name?

Greetings Siggi
