Dear Obonaj
The second larva looks quit like Eupachygaster tarsalis, but I'm not 100% sure if its perhaps a Zabrachia. According to fauna europea the latter does not occur in Slovakia. Besides that, the larva (in this case an immature larva=head capsule not completely chitinized) is too big for Zabrachia and the colorpattern fits the one of E. tarsalis as pictured in STUKE, J.-H. (2003): Die Stratiomyidae und Xylomyidae (Diptera) Niedersachsens und Bremens. - Braunschweiger Naturkundliche Schriften 6 (4): 831-856; Braunschweig. So to me, E. tarsalis.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
