This is either a huge insect or a very small flower. A splendid image. The markings on its back happen to be the same as the I Ching hexagram for 'Kun'. Looking up Kun we find the following; "Great receptivity attracts exceptional results. A natural responsiveness brings about success through support and perseverance, rather than through bold action. Thus, the wise person demonstrates strength like a powerful but gentle mare. This hexagram, consisting of all yin lines, represents a power of the feminine principle no longer honored in our modern world, but such receptivity is most auspicious." Lucky bug.

Very hairy in the lower POV but also very different marking than many of the other hoverflies that you have posted!
