Cryptochetidae has a very large antennal flagellum with a tiny arista, which is not the case here. I am not sure which family this is, though, perhaps lauxaniidae.

Subfamily Agromyzinae, so
Ophiomyia is a possible genus among the
Sonchus feeders. This is a very difficult genus, probably with many undescribed species.
