Hello!

These pics are from yesterday evening in our garden (Ostwestfalen/Germany). The larva was about 3-4 mm long and crawling on an old banana. Any hints? Thanks in advance!

Hello!

No ideas about this one? Could it belong to the Drosophilidae, which were numerous on the bananas before?
Best regards,
Jürgen

Hi J?rgen,
It looks like a Drosophilidae larvae.

I noticed your reply only today, sorry. Thanks, the larvae at that link really look like mine. Drosophilidae was really the most probable family, but I was not sure.
Best regards,
Jürgen

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
