Eristalis cf. jugorum. Better wait for experts here

cf indeed

E. jugorum near Moscow????E. jugorum is a mountain species.
Eristalis rupium is more probably

I agree, but I think I see dull transverse bands on the tergites. Not sure. With dull bands, rupium is excluded from the list of candidates. [edit]
But that would mean there are more candidates than just jugorum.
'More probably' still makes it a cf, don't you agree?
