Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Which Tephritis?

Hi all,

This Tephritis was sunbathing last month on young oak-trees lining an open field currently not in use (Hengelo, Overijssel, Netherlands - 20070509).

I found very few pictures of Tephritis on the internet and those are not enough for me to distinguish clearly between T. cometa, T. neessii and T. vespertina - and that's only considering the ones I've found and assuming those dets on the net are correct :|

Just hoping some of you might be more knowledgable ;)

Thank for any answer or pointers to info!
Cheers
Arp
