this isn't Agromyzidae, venations wings and bristles legs are not characteristic for family Agromyzidae.

Hello, Milos, Jan Willem and Tony!

Thanks a lot! I would never have thought that this is a Muscid...
Best regards,

The long, strong bristles on the shafts of the tibiae indicate that this is not an acalypterate - it's always a good thing to look for.Wink
