Hello,

is this Tephritidae-fly a Trypeta species? Can the species be identified? I found it in July near Cologne on Tripleurospermum maritimum or T. inodorum or whatever the valid name of the plant is.

Thanks,
Michael

Xyphosia miliaria. Just a very pale male on the green background.

So it's nothing special. Thank you nevertheless.
