Eristalis horticola

Eristalis horticola

Eristalis horticola has no vernacular name. It first graced my garden in early April 2020.

According to Wikepedia this hoverfly is a woodland and wetland species that flies May to July… so as it appeared at my Marsh Marigold in my pond in the second week in April 2020 it’s somewhat early.
