Twenty-Five Past Five - _TNY_1346

This summer vacation brought with it several new species of hover fly for me. This is one of them, a Xanthandrus comtus which is a nice species with unusually long wings and distinct (but different) markings on the abdomen on both the female (like this one) and the male.

 

The beautiful pink flower it is visiting here is a rugosa rose (Vresa rugosa)
