merci Atylotus

I try to understand what happened.
If the pupa has traces of larvae Hydrellia spicules, if the pupa has the shape of a pupa Hydrellia, if it is found in the pupa a cephalopharyngeal skeleton of the larvaa attached to the front tip of the pupa, I have to think that the larva existed to the end of his development.
When therefore the parasitism? The wasp lays its eggs in the larva and an egg grows and develops digesting what is in the pupa before itself becoming an adult as seen in the photo?


I have found an answer
