Very small and dark fly (about 2mm long) with hovering flight. Looks like a syrphid but I can't sure because the wing venation is not clear enough. Any idea of the species?

Thanks,

Hello,

I would say Paragus sp.

Yes, male Paragus sp., something like P. haemorrhous.
But that's a guess, so male Paragus sp.!
