Roadside at 700m above sea level, aride area near Salalah/Oman, only this on picture, perhaps 8mm - can you please help with identification? Thanks a lot, Jörg

Hi,

Could you make separate post for these different flies? They are an Eristalinus and a Paragus, two totally different genera.

Best,
Jonne
