I looked up that flesh fly topic (https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/changing-common-names-common-flesh-fly/11255) and will note that this very species was discussed and it seemed to have been concluded that “Aster Leafminer” was best kept as a name. I welcome more discussion here but I’m readding the name now.
