Urophora quadrifasciata Mg., Chaetorellia sp. cf. acrolophi White (very similar to jaceae, differences are in ratio of the aculeus tip and host plants - stoebe and diffusa versus jacea). Chaetostomella aggr. cylindrica (Nobody knows how many morphologically indistinguishable species it includes).
Euphranta connexa F. is a nice thing, of course. It is a typical form, quite a different from the one recently fotographed in France (sorry, I do not remember the name of the author at the moment, but the pictures were pretty good, though I still suspect it could be something really new).
