Hello Markus, i forgot to mention that Ben Hamers has a lovely collection of photos at
tephritidae.net. I highly recommend this site.
i wish that i could help with the mite but it is difficult to impossible to find keys for certain genera. I have identified only three mites via genitalia. I am trying to collect them for reference. I often find them on diptera but i have never seen one on a Tephritidae, so this is a very interesting photo.
I really think that this is
Sphenella marginata, the wing pattern is quite distinct.
I hope that you have a lovely evening :)
