Can someone please ID this?
Thanks in advance!

I am not an expert, but this should be Parhelophilus versicolor (abdomen largely orange) and P. frutetorum (abdomen with yellow strips only).

Females of two species of Merodon. Difficult or impossible to come further.

I would also think Merodon fits them quite well. The second might be in the natans-group i would guess
Anyways thanks to both of you Jan and Fred :)
