Looks like Terellia colon (or something close). Valery will be able to tell you more. Maybe you could change the subject to Tephritidae.

No problem, Willem.:)

Happens to me aaaalllll the time. The advantage is that I have looked into 2 groups of flies instead of one.

Bedankt, Willem:)

No problems, indeed. To your knowledge, the great Erich Hering described Ensina sonchi as a new species of Terellia TWICE: the first time from Tunisia, the second from Manchukuo (now China). And -as a comment - he was NOT OLD at all!!!
