First ID request on this forum.

I assume this is a Tephritis species but it is not one of the species I normally see here.
Found on a vine leaf on 14 June 2020 just outside the village of Yegen, Alpujarras, Andalucia, Spain.

Based solely on an interent search I thought maybe Tephritis dioscurea ?

Thank you. That was my first conclusion but then I changed my mind!
