Thanks for the info S Frazier
Certainly resembles the species you've identified it as. The genus Eristalinus looks likely however I think the species Eristalinus megacephalus is from Europe. See http://syrphidae.com/specie.php?genus=Er... and search for the species on google images...Maybe a close cousin? See http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/798...
