Hy,
I have to show you a larva that I suspect that it is a Syrphidae larva.
The photos were taken in 24.10.2006, Romania, Retezat Mountains, almost 600m.
My question: is it a syrphidae larva? Can you tell me what specie is?
Thanks.

Hello,

Syrphid larva without doubt, with both breathing tubes at the posterior end. In the Rotheray, Scaeva pyrastri could be a good candidate.

This larva seems to be Epistrophe grossulariae - by G. Rotheray. At least the Epistrophe is for sure.

Best wishes and many thanks to Graham,
Amalia

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
