Hi,
I spotted this hoverfly with a dark colored abdomen on Bidens pilosa by a river in eastern China December 7 2015.
Very curious about what genus or species this could be.
Any clue would be appreciated.


Regards

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.
