hi!

found two days ago this fly in a forest close to Timisoara, Bistra Forest. a forest mainly from Quercus, remains from old forest (there are some very old Quercus 2-3 hundred years).

so... this fly was found on Polygonatum leaves (a lot of them found there). small, 3mm withput wings.

maybe an ID is possible,

No Cosmin ("Cosmin" is correct?), it isn't Sapromyza. Yuor fly has presutural dc, so, most probably, it is Meiosimyza.

Is this the same fly? What do you mean by presutural dc? Where on a fly can I see this?

Yes, Albert, same genus.

OK, I looked at your link but the word presutural is not explained. However, it is used some times, but I cannot imagine what it is: a pitty for that site that tries to explain these things and a pitty that you were not willing to explain it to me!

Voila, presut dc.
But anyway, Albert, you have to reed morphology yourself too. It isn't the most interesting thing to reed, but without it you can't use a key and as a result you can't ID fly.
