for Syrphidae there is an extra section in this forum.

Looks like Xylota sylvarum.
Best regards,
Jürgen

Thanks for the answer and the hint. Is Xylota segnis possible? Unfortunately, the photo is not very clear and I have only this.

Why not X. segnis? (Just a question!)

Greetings,

Henrik?

Hello Hendrik,

more a gut feeling than an exact ID. The high contrast colouration of the hind legs reminded me immediately of X. sylvarum (which is rather abundant here). Also I think, I can see a bit of the yellow "fur" on the abdomen. Compare this one: https://diptera.i...to_id=5747
Best regards,
Jürgen

I would also prefer X. segnis because of the pattern on abdomen.

Best regards
