Hello, this female was much smaller than the usual Cheilosia albitarsis/ranunculi, only ~7 mm. On a meadow near rivulet (northwest Germany).

Hi, My guess would be M. nuda. For the other possible species (aerosa/hirtella), you would expect some sort of hair on the thorax, which looks very bare to me. Best, Jonne |
