 Hi. This hoverfly was found in Todtnau (SW Germany), in May 2019

I suspect a Melangyna species. Could this be confirmed and made more precise?

Thank you.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
