Hi all ! I pictured this specimen in my garden on 2023-05-27. I measured it on pictures = 11,3mm I think it could be some Meligramma ... Can we ID this specimen ? Meligramma triangulifera seems to have yellow stripes on the thorax that are diagnose and I can't see them here ... Could be Meligramma euchroma according to syrphidae keys ? Thank you for reading, Didier.        Thank you for reading and/or Commenting this post, Have a nice day, Didier Edited by Tetrao on 27-05-2023 15:20 |

No, this is Epistrophella euchroma (f), characterized by the small yellow spots in the anterior corners of the tergites. |

It's the same species and I know now that there are many latin names for this species : Epistrophella euchroma in Faunaea Europae, Bold Systems, Waarneming.nl, .be and .org, Meligramma euchroma in StN keys for Syrphidae and France and even Epistrophe euchromus on Gbif, all with synonymy ... I hope one day we'll have only one scientific name !!! |
