Could the following specimen be of the species Suillia affinis? Found west of Vienna one week ago. Thanks!

Most probably Suillia umbratica (Meigen, 1835)

First flagellomere robust and dark brown on the edge, dark brown or brownish-black occipital setulae, the scutellum isn't totally haired (sparsely hairy than on S. affinis), the fore femur is distinctly darkened, the apical parts of the tibiae are dark brown (forming a wide ring). These are the key features that distinguish this species from S. affinis
