Yes, they are. I thought they were determinent, but in all images of Terellia tussilaginis I saw, it was not always beautiful green eyes..
Color probably depends on the light...

It reminds me of Orellia. Although, Valery is the expert in tephritidae. Orellia tragopogonis is very similar to this one.

Orellia falcata Scop. Sorry, I've omitted it before.
