Chrysotoxum cautum (m)

This large (>1 cm) bright yellow hoverfly certainly attracted my attention as we walked along the coast path at Penally.

 

I posted this shot because I find it aesthetic, but it is useless for ID purposes. However, I have other shots that clearly show his most notable feature - a large genital capsule - and the antennae segments (see www.brc.ac.uk/irecord/record-details/logged-out?occurrenc...)
