Hi

trying to "iD" different Eristalis, to look after the right details I would be very happy If anybody could control my tries. Confirm or adjust.
According to result of this tries, if well done, I can feel more sure in future for own Eristalis ID's in some clear cases.

Thanks a lot! Brigitte

E. tenax: Date and ID is noted direct on photos.

Hi once more Brigitte! :D

Second picture is an E. tenax, yes. No shadow of doubt ;) Double vertical bands of hairs on the eyes and broad 3rd tibia.

The general aspect of the first picture fits with tenax, altough I cannot see any of the features that make me be sure about the ID.
