Small Hover Fly on Flower

I'm afraid I'm not sure what the flower is (possibly a variety of Dahlia)? If anyone knows I'd be grateful.

Please view large if you have time.........thank you.

I was going to suggest a dahlia, but you've already done that - so I'll just agree with you. The delicate picture of the hover fly is brilliant.

Es ist immer schön, ein Insekt auf einer Blüte zu sehen. Die Schwebflieg hast du perfekt getroffen!
Was mich ganz besonders fasziniert an dieser Aufnahme ist, dass du die Blüte quasi im Querschnitt fotografiert hast. Die Farbverläufe und Strukturen unterhalb der Blüte sind einfach so schön. Eine klasse Aufnahme, Keith!
