Rus., Kursk reg, 21 July (second trip to north stepGrin)
Is it Chloromyia formosa?

Or speciosa ?
Hind basitarsus seems fairly paler than tibia and I guess dark hair above antennae.
These are the characters Tony's cited in former threads.
Difference between these two species is not easy thing anyway...

Really, Stephane, not an easy case - hair above antennae - black, hind basitarsus has same color as tibia Shock
I'll come back to this post after expert's ID...
