Hello,
An Opomyzidae, ? Geomyza before landing on the leaf. Sorry it is not contrast picture enough, but I think an interesting record, if its species is known. It is today, from Istanbul,
Thanks a lot.

Very interesting landing approach! I wonder if other flies do this too. Looks like
G. tripunctata to me, but wait for Paul to confirm.
Stephen.
Darn it, Roger got there first again :@

It is
tripunctata. And don't worry about the contrast, the posture makes up to it more than adequately. Interesting pic.
