Hello all,

I pictured this Diptera today in my garden.
After some search on forums I could not determine it.

This specimen is about 3,0mm (measured on picture) !
Is it possible to ID ?

Thank you for reading, for your comments and / or ID !!!

Hi, this seems to be a miner of the Agromyzidae, perhaps a Phytomyza sp.
On what plant did you find it?

Thank you very much again, it seems I found it on the french forum insecte.org :

Phytomyza gymnostoma

https://www.insec...lit=144569

or
https://www.insec...lit=179819

Could it be that one ( I looked only at the habitus ... ) ???

Yes, it's a female and it seems to be Phytomyza gymnostoma. It's host is Allium - if you want to be sure, you may look at leek leaves in summer:

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
