Hello everybody Can we say something about these larvae found in a fungus on a plum tree's bark ? I think they belong to Mycetophilidae family. Found in my garden - Rosny-Sous-Bois (France, Île-de-France) April 2010 Larvae length : 10 millimeters or maybe less.

I have seen Sciophila rufa under similar conditions. However, do not consider that an ID.

Thank you Paul.  Not a bad idea I think. I remember I found one or two small orange flies on these fungi, but I don't have pictures of them. I'll certainly look for them next year in my garden... |
