It seems to me Meiosimyza spec. rorida? Perhaps.

Meiosimyza yes, but it is not identificable to species level according to these photos! The lateral view is necessary.

I think 99% sure it is Meiosimyza. The other 1%? I don't know. Not Tricholauxania. Not a Sapromyza I think.

Thank you. Sapromyza I know normally more stubby, and Tricholauxania (below - at least I hope, they are) with a darkened wing apex.
