There is an easy way to tell
Merodon from
Eristalis - look at the venation, where the outer cross-vein (vein M) joins R4+5. In
Eristalis this is very close to the wing margin, but in
Merodon (see
http://www.giffbe...5-0006.jpg) it joins half-way between the loop and the wing margin.

Thank you, Tony! It's not so easy for me, because I'm not an entomologist, but only IT-engineer ;)
