Another syrphid from the same place in C Spain: Rivas-Vaciamadrid. Again, taken on the 6th March 2011. I suspect it might be Eristalinus sepulcralis, but I am not sure and I don't know if any other similar or confusing species exists in the area.

Thanks for any help

It is aeneus, the other species of Eristalinus, looking like sepulchralis.
