 Hi Morten, I think it's a male Platycheirus scutatus:
Yellow patches on abdomen small
Foreleg tarsus and apex tibia broadened
Fore femur with long hairs ventrally
Coxa II with a rod-like evagination
(Fotogids Zweefvliegen, André Schulten)

Greetings, Eric

 Hi Eric
Thanks for your help. Smile The shape of the tarsus for S. scutatus does not seem to match "my" fly. (Nationalnyckeln) My fly's face is also heavily projected - can not find this feature in S. scutatus....

 Thank you, Roger and sorry Morten: the heavily projected face confused me, too!

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
