Good afternoon, an insect query. Any ideas.. I have found 4 insects on a rose tree which I have never ever seen before. they look like a fly with a yellow underneath, are just under 1cm long, slim, they didn't move when I touched them. any ideas what they could be on my description ? I am also wondering if they are good or bad for the rose tree :) thanks for reading

I have recetly noticed something new in the garden, similar to hovverflies and they didn't move when touched. After a search I found them to be a Wasp Beetles so might be worth a look.

Next question
The description will give an id of several types. Most flies will not be a problem. Could they have been hoverflies?
If you put flies with yellow abdomen into a search engine like google images yu may find a match.
