 Hi,

while browsing through some of my older pictures I noticed some pictures of a female hoverfly, obviously laying eggs under some shrub leaf that was infested with aphids. I have no idea, which genus that could be and the pictures are not very good, unfortunately. Is it still possible to identify the genus?

Germany, Garden in southern Bavaria, Munich (-West), shrub leaf, 23.05.2024, app.6-8 mm (i don't really remember the size properly)

Greetings, Uli
