Tribe Syrphini covers both.
Jim, I'd either leave it here - where it'll draw more traffic - or keep it here for a while then shift it to tribe. While I wish I could have done more to advance your post, it did impel me to check tribe, where I was able to upgrade other IDs to species, so you've indirectly benefitted several other people.

(I have a hunch this is Epistrophe, but also a nagging suspicion that there's yet another candidate.)
