Northern Germany, Schleswig-Holstein, Pinneberg-Waldenau near Hamburg, in the mixed forest Klövensteen (pine trees, beeches, birches, oaks and other), at a needle of a young small pinetree; 11th of May 2025; photos: kuv.
I've never seen such larva; but form let me think of Hoverfly. Please help to get the ID.
Greetings Kuv
