Hi Ingrid,
I've had a look in De Nederlandse Boorvliegen by John T. Smit and I think you are right. The book says the wing pattern is "onmiskenbaar". One small note of caution - I don't know where in Germany you live and the book only covers a small part of the west of the country (roughly west of a line from Bremen to Stuttgart) so there might be a twin species involved.
