I've never seen it, but may be female of Microphor sp., Microphoridae?

Genus Euthyneura. From what I can see are the thoracic setae blackish and then it would be E. myrtilli. Quite widespread, not uncommon and sometimes present in large numbers. Also often found on flowers of Crataegus (very nice to collect when sweeping... Wink).
