I think this might be Scaeva dignota. Looks a bit like an Eupeodes but it has hairy eyes. R2+3 has the typical shape of Scaeva and the comma-shaped lunules are more of a Scaeva than an Eupeodes. And the lunules reach the lateral border. Plus, the holoptic eyes form an angle closer to dignota than selenitica.

Opinions, suggetions, confirmation or correct ID will be more than welcome ;) Thanks in advance to anyone that can help :)

I wouldn't be surprised if this was a Scaeva dignota male :)
