I think it's a female
Opomyza petrei.

I understand the response by Eric. The dark line along the margins of the abdominal tergites seems rather pronounced. However, that is sometimes seen in
Opomyza germinations also. In
Opomyza petrei the area along that dark line is in most cases more contrasting yellowish.
I would still keep this
Opomyza germinationis/petrei female.
