Hello,
This was ~1.5mm, taken on 14th September 2009 in my garden near Lincoln UK.
I found one which looks very much like it,
Phytomyza crassiseta but that is with a ?.

I do have a species of Veronica in my garden which is host plant to that species. Is it possible to say which species this is? Thanks!
2 pics.
Janet :)

Hi Janet,
after photographs it is not possible determine genus reliably. On http://micropics....siseta.htm is probably female
Aulagromyza sp., no
Phytomyza crassiseta.

Thanks Miloš,
I guess that means no genus is possible?
Do you know what Napomyza carotae looks like? I was searching for Napomyza lateralis as there was a similarity to that species on
micropics.
I found N. carotae on
this site which I must have as my carrots are mined both on the outside as well as down the centre! I know I have Psilia rosae but I didn't know there was another fly which attacks carrots!
