Hello!

There is a Syrphidae on the photo in a very difficult perspective for identification. However, is it possible to identify this fly?

Its length was about 5 mm and it sat on a meadow near Hanover, Lower Saxony, Germany.


Greetings, Freddy...


... at least the genus, maybe???

I would say female Melanostoma scalare. Telling by the concave curved spots on the abdomen and the dusted face (a bit difficult to see here)

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.
