Hello,
This one was mining some
Helianthus leaf :
(length 1.5 mm - June 2004 - Saint Apollinaire (21), France)
Here is what the pupa looks like :
And finally, the imago, 10 days after the mining larva :
(length 1.5 mm, wings excluded)
Does anyone know its name ?
Thanks !

A quick check in the books leads to
Phytomyza atricornis but if I remember well, that really covered two species. I will dig a little deeper and get back to you.

Hi once again,
I got some difficulties to find
P. atricornis in Fauna Europaea...
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but actual name should be
Chromatomyia horticola (Goureau 1851) ? Do you confirm ?

Keep prodding me. I may have some time tomorrow evening to dig this one up.

The fly certainly looks like
Chromatomyia horticola - the lack of acrostichal setae is a good clue.
