Looks like an Anthomyza sp (family Anthomyzidae).

According to Jindrich Rohácek (anthomyzid expert) the features needed for a definite identification are not visiable in the picture, but it most probably is a female of Anthomyza gracilis.

Hello tristram an Jan Willem,

Thank you very much for your reactions!!
Nice that Jindrich also looked at it and I have another picture to what you see a little bit more of the back.
Maybe it helps...?

Regards,
Hedy

I think that for a definite identification minor details of the genitalia are needed. So not visible in the pictures.
I think the best is to regards it is Anthomyza cf. gracilis.
