Hi, I often find larvae like this in tree hole. Could it be Stratiomyidae?

looks very much like the larvae of Zabrachia. If you can spare me a specimen I would appreciate it.

The larvae all appear to be Eupachygaster tarsalis, a larvae with very long hairs except for the outermost dorso-lateral hair which is about 1/3 of the length of the mid-dorsal hairs. In the similar Zabrachia all dorsal hairs are all about the same length.
