Hello!

Sorry about the poor picture quality. These Eristalis visited flowers yesterday here in Ostwestfalen/Germany. The size was inbetween that of E. arbustorum and E. tenax, but more like tenax. I think they were bigger than the "normal" E. interrupta females, but what else could it be if not interrupta? Thanks for any hints!
