Another Hoverfly

DateTue 2012-04-03

A female Eupeodes luniger (Diptera: Syrphidae).  Recognisable by the black inverted 'Y' on its frons (forehead) and by the fact that the yellow spots on the abdomen do not quite reach the lateral margins.  Identification by Janet 'blowave' here.

Photos taken in Whiteknights Park, Reading, UK, on 2010-09-19.
