Looking trough older images, I found this syrphid that looks like Chalcosyrphus or Brachypalpoides. Can someone here at the forum tell me what it actually is? Thank you!

Hi Mike!

Even better, a male Myolepta cf. dubia.

Let´s wait for other opinions.

In NW-Europe, M. dubia would seem like the only possible ID, https://www.flickr.com/photos/63075200@N07/sets/72157629553194588/
I don't know whether there are other possibilities in Central Europe.
Just a comment from one that has yet to encounter a Myolepta...
