Could this be a Heringia sp ? Actually, I am not even sure it is a syrphdae, so comments are more than welcome! Heron, Belgium 6th June 2007. Size approx 8 mm if my memory is correct.

Thanks! I believe Pipizella fits the bill. It seems that it should be one of two possible species in my area, P. viduata (syn. varipes) or P. virens. My key (Verlinden 1994) gives a difference in overall size and length of third antennary article that fits better with virens, but that's probably a risky guess... Philippe |
