 Welcome. The pictures are somewhat little, but it seems to be an Eumerus sp. (Syrphidae).
Stephane.

 Wow, thanks, Hoverfly didn't even cross my mind! (I'm a real beginner at this).
Sorry about the small pics, I compressed them thinking that would be better for posting...

Another thread HERE that I have found since you gave me 'Eumerus' suggested one of the following:
Eumerus funeralis (= tuberculatus)/strigatus/sogdianus

Does one of those seem right?

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
