Hello Jozef,

Yes this is indeed a female E. alpina! Nice photos of a very nice species!
A dark and slender Eristalis. Anterior part of thorax dusted whilst posterior part is not (so) dusted. Face and tibia with conspicuous silver hairs. Metatars of hind leg yellow. The swollen third femur is not visible in the photos here. Do you have another, lateral shot?

Greetings,

Ectemnius

Thank you very much for the confirmation of my findings Ectemnius. Unfortunately I do not have another side view.
Jozef.

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
