I think it's Tephritis conura (female)

Dear Pentti,
From the wing pattern alone, it could belong to
T. conura or a few other species. From the locality, it is highly probably
T. conura. Take a look at a better resolution photo: in
T. conura the posterior notopleural setae marked with red arrows are brown to black (at least on one side), in most others they are white to yellow.
