Looks like E. tenax (F) but wait confirmation. |

Hello, I think Eristalis arbustorum female. But I am not an expert. Greetings, Marie-Christine |

Hello, I would also bet for E. arbustorum. But don't quote me. Pierre Duhem |

Well, if my eyes donīt deceive me I see the arista with only short hairs, that would mean itīs a female Eristalis abusiva rather than arbustorum! Greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

It is a female E. arbustorum. The top ot tibia 2 is black. In E. abusiva it should be the same color as the rest of tibia 2. Wouter |
