It looks like Chalcosyrphus (Syrphidae) to me, but I am not an expert...

Thank you for your help. It could be Xylota segnis. What do you think?

Thanks

Xylota segnis has distinct spines on the lower side of femur 3 (see http://www.dipter...ad_id=8669). Your female shows such structures, so the species should be ok.
