I saw this Syphidae twice in different parks in Tokyo, 2023 and 2024. This is Baccha sp i believe. Is more possible? Thank you for trying, Jörg

Looks more like something near Sphegina to me (layish view).

I was told Baccha sp. by a Japanese museum's curator, who - however - is a lepidopterologist.
