Hello,
despite a sunny day with 27 °C there were only very few Syrphidae on the wing on Sunday: one
Rhingia campestris, one
Helophilus pendulus and the rather small
Eristalis female below at a blackberry hedge on mallow flowers (northwest Germany). It made to me the impression, that it did not belong to the usual
E. arbustorum or
interrupta,
