 found what I believe was an E.eligans the other day but this hoverfly found yesterday in Bushy Pk SW London seems to have slightly different markings:

I had assumed this was Eligans but now I wonder:

 Both are indeed Epistrophe eligans, the upper one is the female, the lower one the male.
There is a considerably amount of variation in color in this species!

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
