Hello
This fly on Helianthemum on a rock in a wood, Griesalp in the Alps 1500msm Bernese Oberland Switzerland, 04.06.2010 - is it a Riponnensia?
(no better pics available).
Greetings Maja

I think it is Orthonevra. Did you collect it? Good :)

Hello André
if i had killed animals there, I think people would have eaten me. No, I didn't collect it.
But there was another fly I first took for Orthonevra. Now I am not even shure it is a Syrphid ...
Thank you for your answer!
Maja

Here it is (same location and time):

Did you kill this one? ;)
It is a Syrphid, but due to the difficult background, for me it is not evident to say which genus even... Platycheirus?
