The yellow markings in Scaeva tend to be more comma like, the genus is generally also very different in size with Eupeodes much smaller. You will also see a difference in the frons with Scaeva having a large inflated frons.

Agree; some female Eupeodes sp. - as yours is - are identifiable but your shots don't show critical features.
