hello, I was wondering if you could help me identify this species (or at least family) from the attached wing photo. sorry for the bad specimen but it was caught in a trap and the adult was destroyed. it was collected from Cyprus in a
Bactrocera trap.
thanks

Euleia heraclei (Tephritidae), I think. But I don´t know if there are other similar species in Cyprus.
