Hi, this seems to be a miner of the Agromyzidae, perhaps a Phytomyza sp. On what plant did you find it? Greetings, Eric |

Yes, it's a female and it seems to be Phytomyza gymnostoma. It's host is Allium - if you want to be sure, you may look at leek leaves in summer: https://bladminee...ymnostoma/ Greetings, Eric |
