Hello

I found this hoverfly in my garden. It is either Callicera fagesii or C. macquarti (which don't seem to be common species) but is it possible to get the species ? I have a preference for C. fagesii because scutellum hairs seem long, I think there are black hairs on tergite 4 and hind tibia have a brownish apex, but I'm not sure at all.

Waiting for your answers. Thank you in advance.
