I think this is Chrysotoxum arcuatum, but I am not sure It can also be Chrysotoxum cautum ! What is the differens between arcuatum / cautum ? Location: Southwest Sweden (V?sterg?tland) Date: 2008-MAY-25 Habitat: Garden in woodland Best regards! Ragne Ragne attached the following image:  [39.65Kb] |

This looks like arcuatum, yes. All tergites are with long hairs. The abdomen is more 'curved', seen from the side. The males lack the huge terminalia that are so typical for cautum. |
