Hi,
At the moment a tiny
Liriomyza (Agromyzidae) is busy with ovipositing in the leaves of our sunflowers (
Helianthus annuus). I find it similar to
L. pusilla that mines in Solidago. However,
Helianthus is not listed among the food plants of
L. pusilla, other
Liriomyza species are mentioned instead. So I would like to ask Milos or another if the depicted species can be identified.
Thanks in advance, Sundew
