Hello! There were many Eristalis pertinax and other Syrphids at a sloe bush three days ago (northwest Germany). This one (sorry, only pics from some distance) seems to belong to another species. But I can't come to a conclusion, whether it is a male E. interrupta or arbustorum.

Hello, Kahis! Kahis wrote: E. arbustorum perhaps? That was the question...  At least the pale orange of the markings would point to it (?).
