Could someone help me identifying these Tephritidae?
The photos (Antonio Montoro) was made near Barcelona, Catalonia (NE Spain), on 09/06/2018.
Thanks!

Can it be, perhaps, Orellia tragopogonis?

Yes, it looks like
Orellia tragopogonis V. Korneyev 2003
As I can see, this is the 2nd shot from Barcelona!
Males were not known before.
Larvae in Tragopogon flower heads, so any reared material or flower heads from there is very welcome!
