Sorry for this eye-catcher, I was not too successful with recent threats here. I saw her - sorry for not collecting specimrn for once - yesterday 12. September 2026) in our garden in Rheinbach near Bonn/Germany. Typical a Size for Myathropa florea (12mm). Do you know similar variants?

It's certainly female Myathropa florea. I haven't heard of such form "rubromaculata". The pink color doesn't look like regular pigment, more like the fly's guts have changed color - maybe it's parasitized or diseased? |
