Hello,
yesterday I found this little (4-5mm) fly on Rubus on the edge of the forest near Frankfurt / Main / Germany.

Is it a Syrphidae?

Regards
Andreas

I think Pipizella but just thinking. I am not a specialist :(

It is a male Pipizella. Impossible to ID without male specimen... so collect it :)

Hello Andre, Hello guenille,
thank you so much!
Collect? And than? I'm still a photographer...

Best regards
Andreas

Turn into a collector too... expand your experiences and become a dipterist ;)

Hello Andre,
in my dreams, I will be a dipterist, but in reality I'm too stupid for this...

Andreas
