Hello friends To my mind this appears to be Phytomyza bipunctata. Can it be confirmed? The fly keys out well enough when I use Spencer (1976) and his drawing of the aedeagus is not very different from what I see in the microscope. But you never know … Denmark, Amager. Malaise trap mid-May 2018. Willow, birch, herbs and grasses on reclaimed land. No Echinops spp. as far as I'm aware. Several kilometres to the nearest gardens. Help will be much appreciated Walther Gritsch attached the following image: [173.95Kb] Walther |

That is so much better! Thank you. I evidently misjudged the length of the 2nd costal section in relation to the 4th. Phytomyza leucanthemi is apparently not recorded from the Danish fauna ... Well, it is. I just realized that. At least the mines From a cemetery in Copenhagen. Actually I should have all my agromyzids from the trap double-checked by you Thanks again.
