Hello Bob, Welcome to the site and forum. What I can see from the pictures, it does not look like a fly larva to me. My suggestion is that it maybe the larva of a chrysidid wasp. I have no literature available to check, but maybe you have. Paul - - - - Paul Beuk on https://diptera.info |

Thank you for your answer, there are fair chances that it is indeed the larva of a Chrysidae. Here is what I found in another nest...  PS : Excuse me please for such a late answer but I have been struggling with a bad computer problem BG Edited by BobGaia on 09-12-2004 22:40 |

hello, It is not a Chrysidae which appeared but...... According to cthirion, it is a Cryptinae, probably Stenarella domator (Scopoli)  Thanks.... |
