Yes, Myopa for sure  I think it is Myopa picta, but wait for the experts in this  |

I agree that the mouthparts look so long, but I wonder whether long enough. Hopefully Jens-Hermann Stuke will see this photo.

I am not sure about this fly because several characters can not be seen well at the photo - especially the important wing coloration. I would suppose that the length of the proboscis is too small for picta and that the white hairs on the genae should be more obvious. The black spots on the postgenae and the jiz fit well to buccata but without a better look at the wing I am not convinced. Jens-Hermann |

Unfortunately on this occasion I do not have other pictures that could provide more detail for better identification.  Kind regards. José Marín |
