Moscow region, july. As far as I understand both fly is Syrphidae. 1. Looks, comparing with photos from Gallery/Syrphidae, very much like some Rhingia sp. Am I right? 2. With R 4+5 curve seems to me like genus Eristalis or Tubifera

You are right, the first one is a Rhingia. The second one belongs to genus Anasimyia, a genus closely related to Helophilus. The very elongated 'snout' points towards A. lineata, but it's quite some time since I identified specimens of this genus. |
