location: Switzerland, 412 müM, still on my balcony (snow visible on the top of the hills nearby)
date: 22.10.09, today
size: about 12 mm

is it Scaeva selenitica male?
The male of this female : http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=7&thread_id=25251

It was a nervous one, no chance for pics with tripod and went off ofter only a few of pics :-(

Could anybody adjust or confirm my suggested ID?
Thank you again, Brigitte
