Hello together,

last Sunday I found this fly in the vegetation close to a small road in Kemi/Tornio area, Finnland, Lappland, few hundred meters from the Gulf of Bothnia, so almost on sea level.
I was pretty sure, it's somewhat close to Chrysotoxum arcuatum/verralli, but now seeing it on the pic, the antennae doesn't fit to Chrysotoxum.

Anybody an idea, to which genus/species this fly belongs to?

Thanks and best regards from Meri-Lappi,

Marc
