Hello, I've got a couple of larvae that I'm not too sure about. All from Santa Clara County, CA. This first one, I'm thinking is Empididae? Sorry for the poor quality picture--I didn't have access to a higher degree scope today--so I can take another if it's too blurry. Thanks for the help Neel B attached the following image:  [196.43Kb] Edited by Neel B on 17-04-2025 01:06 |

For both of these, I'm thinking Limoniidae?

This one I'm having a hard time with. I don't really had a solid guess at the moment.

Another perspective of the above one if it helps:

Another one that I'm not too sure about, but I'm leaning towards pediciidae.

The first one is an Empididae, the second most likely Antocha sp., but certainly Limoniidae, the rest is Pediciidae and most likely Dicranota, for I think I see small claws on the ventral pseudopods |
