Hello,

I found this fly (size about 6mm) in Zeeland (Netherlands). Is family Muscidae correct? Can something be said about genus or species?

Thanks, Michael

I'd rather say Pegomya sp. (Anthomyiidae).

Greetings.

Thank you for your answer. I am still not able to distinguish Muscidae and Anthomyiidae.

Perhaps Pegomya bicolor, a common Rumex leaf miner.
