Hello Mike, the comma spots do not reach the tergite margins, so not corollae. Most likely Eupeodes luniger female. Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

To exclude E. lapponicus the wing venation is important (in this species vein R4+5 is strongly bent). It is not clearly seen here. Another quite similar species is Scaeva selenitica, but it has a swollen frons, dark antennae and a dark ring on the hind tibiae, so it is out. Eupeodes spec. is OK. It always pays to compare the pictures and explanation in Steven Falk's Syrphidae collection (https://www.flick...600153789/). Regards, Sundew |

Hello Sundew, Sundew wrote: To exclude E. lapponicus the wing venation is important (in this species vein R4+5 is strongly bent). It is not clearly seen here. therefore I did not write "surely Euopeodes luniger"

That's what I understood from your post, dear Jürgen! I just expanded the explanation. |

For me it is nice and sufficient to know that it is Eupeodes spec. Many thanks. Best regards, Maik |
