Hi this syrphidae is a very special one for me :-) Found them looking through the pics of 2009. Could it really be Lathyropththalmus aeneus? In my syrphidae-book it is written, that this syrphidae should be predominant in the near of coast but sometimes far of the coast too. Or could it be a similar one, the Eristalinus sepulchralis . . . or am I complete wrong . . . ? Switzerland, near lake Zurich, in my neighbours garden, 05.09.09, 412 müM Thank you for help and ID! Kind regards from Switzerland (still snow in the meadow) Brigitte brigitteu attached the following image:  [29.26Kb] Edited by brigitteu on 15-03-2010 22:14 |

Genus name nowadays is: Eristalinus. Species: sepulchralis. Gender: male (in the male the eyes are separated, almost like in females, which is a good way to distinguish it from aeneus) |
