could be Urophora jaceana but i think that a host plant is necessary for males. wait for an expert opinion. John and Nini. Naturalists not experts. |

Almost certainly Urophora solstitialis L. -- The fore femur is entirely yellow in U. jaceana

Concerning U. cuspidata -- yes, it is possible, but males cannot be identified with certainty unless you know the host plant
