Hello, I have an issue in identifying this hoverfly. The closest I could get is probably Eristalis sp., I reckon?
The picture was taken in my backyard, 15th of September 2020, around Poznan, Northwest Poland.

Most probably a female Eristalis arbustorum.
If the arista (long bristle on the antenna) is feathered with long hair and the apex of shin 2 is yellow it would be E. abusiva.

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
