Hi,

I've found those larvae in a dead body of Lerot.
What could it be ?
Thanks

Lerot as in Eliomys ?
That is an nice find.

THere are no Oestridae in Eliomys, so I have little doubt that these are Calliphoridae or possibly some Muscidae (Muscina for instance). Safest bet is on Calliphoridae.

I would say that it is closer to Calliphoridae

Thanks.

Yes it was Eliomys quercinus. Here is a picture of the entire body.
