This looks like a female Episyrphus balteatus.

Thank you Xespok.
I checked images available in i-net, colour patterns are variable. There is only one possible species?

There is indeed only one possible species with this pattern of double black bands on tergites 3 and 4. E balteatus is the most commonly recorded hoverfly in the UK, and I imagine it is similarly common over most of Europe. It is extremely variable, both in the heaviness of the black bands and the brightness of the orange.
