Hello Syrphid-experts,

this Syrphus-specie was found resting on the leaves of a tree. I don't think it's Syrphus ribesii. I would be very happy about ID-help!

I do not think it is S. ribesii, because femur 3 is not completely yellow. So i think this is S. vitripennis or S. torvus, Distinguished by the hairs on their eyes, a character not visible (for me) on this photo.
Greetings,

Jan

Hello Jan,

thank you very much for your feedback and the explanations! Unfortunately I have no better photo of the eyes. So it will remain Syrphus sp. .

Greetings
Stefan

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
