Goniglossum wiedemanni, larvae live in fruits of Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae).

John, that's it ... I was trying to take pictures of Andrena florea, a bee that only feeds on Bryonia. As I didn't succeed with the bee (my camera has a very long time between pressing the buton and taking the picture), I shot these beautiful flies on a Bryonia leaf.
Many thank's for the identification.
Didier.
