Hello I am new on this forum and I have a question:
I am an photographer/illustrator and the main subject I am focussing on is the Diptera.
I am planning to make an illustration of different species of fly-larvae living in nests of wasps.
I chose to go for a nest of Vespula vulgaris with it's Dipteran inhabitants.
What I am looking for is one or more pictures (scientific)illustration(s) and/or photographs of larvae from Volucella-species (except V. inflata) to use as an example for my illustration.
(I am also looking for pictures of larvae from other families but I don't think here is the right place to ask for them.)
I would be glad if someone could help me out. If you have some interesting pictures for me, you can post them here but you can also sent them to loekgerris@gmail.com.

kind regards
