Please, can someone identify the species of this fly? Larva and pupae are of the same species. Larva is a miner on Rumex sp. plant.
Thanks!

I'd say
Pegomya sp. (female).
For plant association, see

I think it's probably
P. bicolor, as I think I see three equal preapical setae on the dorsal side of the hind tibia in image 1.

Prealar seems long, forefemur infuscated and coxae brownish / yellow, .....
So I have doubt if it is
P. bicolor (in female the forefemur should be whole yellow, also coxae and prealar short)
But....whole antennae looks very dark.
I would say,
P. solennis, but with female ...always difficult!!
(and the
P. bicolor from the link....I also have doubt if it is
P. bicolor)
