Hello,
I was astonished, that many
Siphona
were still active on
Leucanthemum
flowers on a meadow two days ago (northwest Germany). Is it
Siphona geniculata
?

I would say yes.
I have caught 26
Siphona geniculata
so far this November, mostly from yarrow (
Achillea millefolium
). This was in Reading, UK.
