I found this fly, with shape and behaviour of Sepsis, but body was bicoloured and wings had multiple black spots. I could not find similar Sepsidae on internet. It walked around on leaves of Heracleum sphondylium.

That's either Geomyza balachowskyi or Geomyza hackmani [Opomyzidae]

Thank you so much! So, an entirely different family!
