You did a nice job on these photos !!

Palps yellowish at base + no interfrontals + legs yellowish + abdomen and thorax greyish + acrostichals strong but small and with some hairs between + frontal vitta almost whole orange + lower katepisternal seta relative long + prealar about half and arista thickened at base......
Should be Pegomya betae !
I could be wrong with P. hyoscyami (what i know, looks very simular..?, but should have lower katepisternal shorter.

Hi Joke,
Thanks for the ego boost regarding quality of photo's, it is of course well deserved...Grin.
P.betae sounds good to me as it is unrecorded up here. I've compared this with a picture of P.hyoscyami in the Gallery, and to my eyes looks different.
Regards Roger
