Hi, These Eristalis syrphids remain difficult to me. Is this big female an E. pertinax? The yellow feet match, but I expected the black facial central stripe to be broader... Photographed at the Baltic Island of Usedom in August. Thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [167.74Kb] |

Strange flash-/photoshop-effects... exceptionally thin facial stripe, but matches pertinax because of the yellow tibia. Are they really this light, not shopped? Because the stigma resembles similis (= pratorum). |
