Hello, on June 22nd this small female was ovipositing on Cytisus scoparius in a northern part of Hannover, Germany. Could it be Hexomyza sarothamni? I am sorry for not having a front photo. Thank you for answering! Hans Haleun attached the following image:  [224.28Kb] Edited by Haleun on 04-10-2023 22:41 |

I see no reason it couldn't be Hexomyza sarothamni. To run it through a key from subfamily Agromyzinae to species level you would need a good look at the face, and some luck. |

Dear John, a great THANK You! Yes, "some luck" would have been good - without wind, and a patient fly. Thankful wishes from Hans |
