    Found this fly in the house about a month ago, googled the description but none of the fly's i saw matched it. Does anyone what it is, it's the same size a housefly but the abdomen is slightly skinnier. The photo is bad because i took it with my phone but the stripes are a very bright white and the eyes are a red/brown colour.

    Wonder if it is some kind of Hover Fly?

    Seen a few of these today, they do indeed hover.

    Unfortunately the little guy was dead when i found him so i never saw him fly around, when i did google the description it came up with a lot of hover fly's but none looked similar.
