Northern Germany, Schleswig-Holstein, Neu-Lankau near Mölln, uncultivated meadow with bushes right by the Elbe-Lübeck-Canel, at a leaf of Rubus sp., Outsidephotos kuv (only from this angle), 1st of July 2019. In the Gallery I found similar "Tachinidae > Blepharipa pratensis" - is that right? Please help to get the ID.

No, that is not right. I am afraid about 80 species look superficially similar, though the jizz is quite different (darker colour, more slender, discal bristles present).

This is a candidate Hubneria affinis.

Thank you very much Theo for information. Is "candidate" = cf. Huebneria affinis (or without cf.)?

The pic is not razorsharp, I can’t see all details I’d like.

Candidate = cf., indeed.
