It could be Cornutrypeta superciliata (family Tephritidae), which occurs in Norway.
In Merz (1994) it's named Stemonocera superciliata. and indeed, there is very little information about it in the WWW.

Indeed,
Stemonocera superciliata (Frey), one of the rariest European flies. Like most Tephritini, a leaf miner, and like most tephritini miners, humidity requiring and thus restricted to mountain or forest areas.
