Turkey, pine forest near Manavgat, 30 Mar.
Seems easy to ID, but do not recorded for Turkey in Fauna Europea

Hello Nikita,
Yes, Callicera for sure, and given the orange legs AND the fact you found it in a pine forest indicates Callicera rufa!
Nice find! :o
What do you do with your collected syrphids?
Greetings, Gerard
