Moved
Moved from ID Request. I took the liberty of cropping this one for you - looks to me like it might be a bombyliid and not a syrphid?

Cropping
All of these images should be cropped close to "just the bug". Only you and the editors can see your full-size images.

...and get an ID, please crop your pix tightly to get rid of the empty space and show as much bug as possible: images that show mostly background and irrelevant objects are often ignored by experts
