Yes, it helps a bit. It seems the wings are clear, the scutellum is black and the face is totally white/ yellow. That would leave Myopa fasciata or Myopa occulta. It seems the mouthparts are quite short, so I would go for Myopa occulta, but that is not a 100 % ID!  greetings, Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

I doubt that this is Myopa occulta. Myopa occulta has much more darker thorax. And M. occulta as far as I know doesn?t have stripes on thorax?... |

This looks like Myopa fasciata to me. Definitely not occulta |
