Hello, this fly was found in my garden the 04 04 2022. Size : 2,9 mm. Locality : Luçon, middle west of France. Melanagromyza was suggested with the team of the "forum du monde des insectes". The fly is always in the alcohol, so I can do a picture of the hypopygium to get species if possible. Thanks by advance. Best regards.

Not sure that you'll get a decent hypopygium pic from that specimen - looks like a female to me.

Possibly, though I find the females difficult, even with a specimen!

Hello, after this frontal view (head width : 0,6 mm.) and the study of the keys of Spencer, it was suggested : Hexomyza simplicoides. Do you agree with this ID. ?
