I found 2 females of this Tephritid in an olive grove in Tuscany a few days ago.
Could you please help me in the identification?

Thank you very much.

Tephritis separata complex, needless to say it's complex...;)
It can be either one of three species: T. divisa, T. separata, T. mutabilis.

Impossible to say, at this moment.
