Hello!

This syrphid (also from today, Ostwestfalen/Germany) looks rather similar to that in my last posting, but it had the size of a small Eristalis (somewhat bigger than Syrphus). Any idea?

Nice picture, in my experience they are not so easy to put on a picture.
This is not a Syrphus, but something com[pletely different.
In earlier years it was called Megasyrphus annulipes, but nowadays it belongs in the genus Eriozona.
This is the female of Eriozona erratica! Very different from the other species in this genus, the Eriozona syrphoides!
Look for the differences at my pictures at the French site:

Thanks, that was my first guess, too. But I was not sure, because I knew this species also with much more yellow stripes (the male even more, nearly orange):

That reminds me more of an Eristalis intricaria or male Cheilosia illustrata ;-).

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
