Hello,

I photographed this leaf mine on a Arctium tomentosum. in Kokkola Finland July 18th 2020.
Is it an Phytomyza mine? And is it possible to identify the species?

Thank you in advance,
Pentti

Hi Pentti, most probably a P. lappae but this one can be confused with the polyphagous Chromatomyia syngenesiae:
