Syrphid - Mallota posticata

Syrphid - Mallota posticata
Irwin, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, USA
May 26, 2010
I'm a student at the University of Arkansas working on a special problems course identifying the family Syrphidae. All specimens are collected by Dr. Dowlings Lab located at the Department of Entomology at the University of Arkansas.


I'm trying to determine what species of Mallota this is? Thanks for any further help!
