This fly was feeding on a lesser celandine (Fecaria verna) flower. The photo was taken today (May 6), in central part of European Russia (Moscow Oblast).
Based on images I've found in Internet, it looks very similar to flies of Myolepta genus, although all pics I've looked through had flies with some sort of orange marks on the abdomen, while my fly is completely black.

Thank you.
Sorry for posting this thread in general Diptera section originally, haven't noticed there is a separate forum specifically for Syrphidae.

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
