Hi,

I suppose Tipulidae, but I'm not an expert. Larva from rotten wood and polypore a hollow tree.

Cracow, Poland, 26.02.2015

i think it is closer to Limoniidae or Pediciidae (Ula) because the larva has ventral pseudopods. As it is large it can be only a few species, but as the anal lobes are hardly visible it is a bit difficult. If I would make a guess than it would be something like Epiphragma (?) or Ula.
