Hello, dipterists
I'm trying to identify nematocera larvae found ex Polyporus squamosus, today june 11th 2026 in Wallonia (Belgium)
I think Brachypeza radiata as I'm sure that the fungus is Polyporus squamosus

How can I make the difference between Brachypeza radiata and other mycetophilinae larvae ?
Madwar 1977 is the best reference ?
Thanks
Izmi
