Date: three days ago Habitat and Locality: Urban garden in Zaragoza city, middle Ebro valley, NE Spain. Mediterranean climate. Size: Abou 13-15 mm. Others: Many exemplars in the same square meter. Many species of syrphids observed in my garden: Eristalis, Eristalinus, Xanthogramma, Chrysotoxum, Episyrphus, Eupeodes, Epistrophe, Dasysyrphus, Syritta, Helophilus... Can be identified, at least to genus level? Thanks. Isidro |

Hi again! I am not an expert but I reared the larvae on the attached picture and it turned out to be a E eligans. It is much more flat than your cylindrical larvae. I still think it is a Scaeva on your pictures but I am not sure. Krister Hall attached the following image:  [44.29Kb] |
