Can anyone tell me what Syrphidae this is?
At the edge of a small forest, 14 July 2008 (Helsingborg, Sweden).
Size was around 6mm.
Thanks!

It's not a very good photo and for some reason it's the only one I took. Guess the fly flew away Smile

Looks like Meliscaeva auricollis (F) to me, but wait for someone else to confirm or otherwise.

You could be right. I'll edit the title and wait for confirmation (or otherwise)
