Found today in Lisbon. I think it is a Eristalis sp. but am not sure which one. Could be a E. arbustorum but the pattern on the abdomen doesn't match.

White legs... Could it be a E. pertinax?

Eristalis arbustorum alright!
Abdominal pattern is variable.
E. pertinax has yellow frontal tarsi, in this case clearly dark.
