Chalcosyrphus nemorum.
Dear Pentti, I have a question: you have such a wonderful new book on Finish Syrphidae.
Why not try to identify Syrphidae yourself?
Apparently you kill them to take pictures, so... would be a logical next step :)

Thank you very much for all your help!
Andre: Identification is too difficult to work.
