27.7.18 in Jyväskylä, Finland.
I'm confused. Sometimes it seems to be four, sometimes six.

six spots. The third spot is "shifting", which is an important concept with Muscidae.

Thanks John
Then it is possibly Sapromyza sexpunctata. On the other hand I remember, that we have two other species with 6 spots. Can anybody help?
