Yes, I agree with Amalia, this should be a Chamaesyrphus, but nowadays it is generally enclosed in the genus Pelecocera! So this could be Pelecocera lusitanicus! Greetings, Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

This seems to be Pelecocera tricincta. in van Veen keys Pelecocera and Chamaesyrphus are two genus differently. concerning what Gerard said before, there is only a genus. Amalia |
