Field Notes

Description:

With this species, I have managed to picture 20 different hoverflies in Norway. It is the first Eupeodes sp. even it is very common. Adults are around 10 millimetres in body length. This female has similar yellow markings, commas, on the abdomen like Dasysyrphus hilaris https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/622518737.

Habitat:

In the flowerbed on the balcony.
