Hello Forum,
to my knowledge, this picture shows
Liriomyza melampyga. Can this ID be confirmed? If correct, is it a picture that should be given in the Diptera Gallery?
Hagen, NRW, Germany, alder marshland, 175 msm, June 8th 2008,
mine in
Impatiens glandulifera
Best regards, Josef

I'd say it probably is - but I'm not sure whether any of the polyphagous species mine
Impatiens, and what their mines would look like in this species.
Always best to rear the adults and check genitalia.

Phytoliriomyza melampyga (Loew, 1869), in Europe on
Impatientis sp. also minig polyphag species
Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau, 1851).
