Hello,

The hind femora is not arched and the arista is plumose : Volucella bombylans seems to be a better fit.

Best regards,
Jürgen

Very long hairs in the arista and some traces of M1 vein orientation (it doesn't continue straight to wing border quite in axis with R4+5...you cannot see how it changes direction here, but you can check that it doesn't continue straight) help guiding to Volucella, and considering the rest of the characters --> female V. bombylians
