Hello, I have an issue in identifying this hoverfly. The closest I could get is probably Eristalis sp., I reckon? The picture was taken in my backyard, 15th of September 2020, around Poznan, Northwest Poland. BartNap attached the following image:  [195.3Kb] Edited by BartNap on 08-10-2020 14:28 |

Most probably a female Eristalis arbustorum. If the arista (long bristle on the antenna) is feathered with long hair and the apex of shin 2 is yellow it would be E. abusiva. Eric |
