Helophilus pendulus - "Balck-nosed" tiger hoverfly
An older photo of this species, better than those I have already published. Probably female.
A species quite similar to H. trivitatus, but with a black strip down the nose and generally darker and more colorful. Females also resemble those of H. hybridus, which have darker hind tibia (only a base is pale) and somehow different abdomen pattern.
The most common tiger hoverfly in my region, however, I am still waiting for a better catch.
