Hello,
a thin and long larva found on the ground in my garden the 05 october 2013
Maybe a Mycetophilidae or a Therevidae larva ?
Greetings,
Thomas

Secondary segmentation is consistent with Anisopodidae, Thereveidae, or Scenopinidae.

The headcapsule with this long dorsal extension is typical for Therevidae and Scenopinidae.If the apical end of this dorsal extension is spatulate than it is a Therevidae, if not a Scenopinidae.

Hello tlegrand,
Then I would say it will be Therevidae Thereva sp. probably T. nobilitata. The commonest and most widespread species which is found also in gardens.
