Can anyone help with this hoverfly ID please. Found on high Dartmoor on Hen near yesterday - looks like a Scaeva but markings are yellow not buff white

Can you see the wing stigma colour?
If yellow, how about Scaeva selenitica.
If black, possibly a Dasysyrphus such as D. venustus or even pinastri (a bit tricky to fully identify). But it is rather late for any Dasysyrphus. |

| This looks to be Scaeva selenitica Adrian. Details of the locality would be useful for the recording scheme - ideally an OS grid ref. |
