Pictured at Ben-Ahin's reserve (Belgium, Huy) on 2018-06-29, this specimen of Xylota ?
Can we ID it ?
Between Xylota sylvarum and Xylota xanthocnema, it's never easy ...
Thank you for comments or ID !

I would say sylvarum, on the first picture you can see the inner part of the hind tibia and it is extensively dark

In the key I have it is not said if we must look the tibia on a profile picture (and so the outside of the legs) or look at the inside of the legs ...
As a beginner I don't know anything about diptera ...
Thank you for your comments !!!
