Could someone help me identifying these Tephritid?

The photo (author: Francisco Rodríguez) was made near Almeria, Spain, on 7.11.2009.

Perhaps a Myopites inulaedyssentericae?

Thanks

Myopites sp., possibly eximia (mainly Atlantic) or longirostris (Mediterranean), but I am not sure they are not synonyms or subspecies.
