The first is a female, probably S. scripta indeed (females are difficult to ID in this genus). The second looks like S. scripta too, a male. But... I think it is another species, and without genitals under a binoc not IDable to species level. Do you have another pic of the same specimen, with the wings alongside the body? |

Hello Andre > think it is another species, and without genitals under a binoc not IDable to species level.< Because of this warm soft brown bands? > Do you have another pic of the same specimen, with the wings alongside the body? < I will search if I do have. This hoverfly was only on a short trip on my flowers. Thank you very much, Brigitte |
