Photographed feeding on Anthriscus sylvestris, Cow Parsley.
South west Norway, June 26th.
I have no idea what this could be.
Some help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Looks like a male of Xyphosia miliaria to me, but change the subject to Tephritidae and you will get an answer from the specialists.

Thank you very much, both of you.
I'm happy to get a name on this nice fly!
