Hello!

This 5 mm fly was waving with its wings all the time - left one, right one, left one... Cool. It was sitting on a Leucanthemum vulgare yesterday (Ostwestfalen/Germany). I think it's a Tephritis sp., but which one?

Hi J?rgen,

Considering the host plant and the wingpattern it should be T. neesii.
By the way : The T. conura-couple at your site rather looks like a Oxyna-couple to me.

Hi Jurgen,

I agree with Ben, it's probably T. neesii.
