Hello! A not very big Eristalis from end of April at a hedge (northwest Germany). The eyes were looking "special".

I have seen something looking extremely similar that, very kindly, André IDed for me. He said mine was Eristalis similis. I think yours is too. I am attaching my Eristalis for comparison.

I am attaching my Eristalis for comparison. That one looks indeed very similar ("similis"  ), thank you! I had never heard of that species in german forums, but it is listed in the checklist as occuring here.
