A syrphid caught by a spider on a flower. But which one? (I can't identify the spider either). Today, in Portugal, near the coast.
Thanks,
Joaquim

Hi,

The spider is Synema globosum.

Back to the poor syrphid. Could it bee a Merodon equestris ? Body shape and wing venation match. Still I think there are many similar species in the south of Europe.
