Hi,
This Syrphus should be neither vitripennis nor torvus, because the hind femora are light and have only a small dark part close to the body (do you call this region the base?). So I suppose I photographed Syrphus ribesii. Do you agree?
Location is Berlin in October.
Regards, Sundew

Yes, it is called the base.
