Hello!

These medium sized (~8-10 mm) flies were very abundant today here in Ostwestfalen/Germany on meadows. Is it Cheilosia, perhaps C. flavipes? Thanks in advance!

It is a Cheilosia, and I'm pretty sure this is a female of Cheilosia scutellata! The scutellum has a yellow border, and the humeri are yellow, and the antennae are brown/red.

Additional: if the 'cheeks' have orange markings, it's for sure scutellata. If the cheeks are black and the antennae a bit more reddish and a bit larger: check on Ch. soror. Better catch them if you are not sure.
