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.

Oh, and I cant see chaetotaxy on thorax very good, so PROBABLY Meiosimyza.

And what else could it be if not
Meiosimyza?

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.

The last 3 images look to me as
Tricholauxania praeusta Fall.

Yes, thanks for confirmation. As those I had also saved them.
