Based on a key by David Gibbs https://davidjgibbs.webs.com/downloads/Key%20to%20the%20genera.pdf, I have concluded that this animal belongs to Pipunculus because of coloured stigma, scutellum without long bristles, and fine indument on the thorax. Can it be confirmed, and is there any chance to get it to species? From moist ground with flowering shrubs (Crataegus, Salix, Corylus) in edge of old broadleaf forest North of Aarhus 31st of May.
