Photo taken by my friend in a village next to a primitive river valley yesterday.
It oviposited on a hanging branch and individual aphids were seen on nearby leaves.
Can its genus be identified?

The egg it laid, about 2mm in length.

Weel, Syrphini, maybe Baccha or Spheginobaccha, but I'm not sure.
