This larva was very abundant in Rumex sp. The larva was surprisingly large for being a leafmining larva. (Should give rise to a fly of around 8 mm or so)

One of the Anthomyiidae. Some species of Pegomyia are miners in Rumex, in particular P. bicolor and (the name in older works, maybe not up to date) P. nigritarsis.
