Chrysotoxum arcuatum (male), however, wait for real experts :)

Not a bad guess, but this is a male of Chrysotoxum cautum.

Thx to all :-)
I would like to start learning about the European (better Italians) Hoverflies... (for now my "study field" are Odonata).
Have you tips to get started? Or have you got any key to be used for identification?

Sory for my bad english :-P
