Maybe Ch. vernalis female. Or latifrons. Can't really see it. Maybe if you had a view of the face and a view that shows the scutellar bristles better. |

Thanks Anfre. No good face shots I'm afraid. I do have another photo but I'm not sure it would do any good.

Well, it's not latifrons, that is for sure now. It has very light tibia for a typical vernalis (but what's a typical vernalis?  ). Could be that, or a Scandinavian species not known to me. |

Many thanks Andre. I'll leave it as Cheilosia sp. And you did narrow it down a little bit
