Hello,
I discovered this female Chrysotoxum in the Odenwald (Baden-Württemberg/Germany) at the weekend. Could you help with more exact ID?
Cheers
Michael

Hi Michael, I would say it's C. elegans: antenna-segment 3 < 1+2.

Thank you Eric! This is also my secret guess :)
It is RL 2 and very scarce in BW.
Best regards
Michael
