Hello! I took a photo of the following Eristalis on a buckwheat field in July in Germany. Can anybody help with identification? It looks similar to Ersitalis tenax for me. Thank you! ehaefele attached the following image:  [229.74Kb] Edited by ehaefele on 06-11-2020 13:03 |

Hi, I'm quite sure, it's a male Eristalis arbustorum. Tergite 2 & 3 with yellow patches, tergites with white base. Greetings, Eric |

From this angle, I find it hard to rule out Eristalis abusiva. Do you have any photo where the contact area of the eyes (above the antennae) is visible? |
