Very likely to be a female of Geomyza balachowskyi. Normally (but not always) the abdomen the females of G. hackmani and G. martineki is entirely black (with the exception of the base), and in those species the post-scutellum is normally also much darker.

Hello Jan Willem, Many thanks for the determination. Best regards Helga |
