I seldom pay attention to hoverflies but this one looked quite unfamiliar to me.

I would guess Platycheirus podagratus. The legs are very distinctive in this species, although your photo does not give quite the right view to be sure. The shape of the abdomen and what I can see of the orange spots looks right too. Also antennae uniformly dark.

Hello,

I would say, its a kind of Xylota, X. florum or one ofe the similar species.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
