Dear Forum,
I found this fly in the grass / herbs near the small garden pond. I found different Tephritis species with very similar wing pattern, like T. separata, T. neesii, or T. conura.
Any option to get the right ID`?
Thanks,
Markus

Tephritis neesii, the host is Leucanthemum vulgare.

Thanks a lot, Ben!
(And yes, Leucanthemum vulgare is at this place...)
