Hi,
This 13 October 2017, on Ivy in South of France. About 9 mm.
Is it possible to identify him with these pictures?
Thank you for your help.

Moved it to the Syrphidae forum. Perhaps an Orthonevra sp.?

Thank you Paul for the movement towards Syrphidae.
I was not sure of the family.

This very large Orthonevra is placed into more or less recent described genus Riponnensia > R. splendens male
