Hello!

This fly was about 5-6 mm long (see Drosophila obscura group (2 mm) and bigger Drosophila (3-3.5 mm) for comparison). It visited a banana bait in our garden (northwest Germany).

With Drosophila sp. (3-3.5 mm; by the way: can anybody ID it?).

The Drosophila is another D. immigrans.

Thank you, Paul. I thought the cross vein was not darkened enough. Does your missing comment for the bigger fly mean, that you agree with Meiosimyza decempunctata?
