I haven't much literature on Southern European Hoverflies, But I suspect this is Eristalinus sepulcralis

After Fauna Europaea, in Romania occur only 2 species :

Eristalinus aeneus (Scopoli 1763)
Eristalinus sepulchralis (Linnaeus 1758)
I found this pictures with E. aeneus (http://www.canaco...alinus.jpg) and my specimen is different, so I think is E. sepulchralis.
