Hello!

I guess a closer ID will not be possible? Numerous on composite flowers on July-22, northwest Germany. Length about 4 mm.

Certainly a Siphona but that's as far as I go :D

Thanks, Chris! I must admit, that I did not really expect a species level ID. But if one doesn't try, one never knows... ;)
