Hello!

Sorry for the bad pictures. I found this only 2 mm big fly two days ago on a meadow on Cirsium arvense (Ostwestfalen/Germany). I think it could be a Terellia, but I can't find a matching species...

Oh! I had Ensina sonchi several times in the last one, two weeks and should have known it: http://www.dipter...ad_id=8703
This fly seemed very small to me for a Terellia, but it did not match the Ensina pics in my head ;) (perhaps, because not found on a yellow flower?). Thanks a lot!
