Hello,

I found these pupae on the same Phragmites reed as I found the Sciomyzids posted in this thread. Besides Elgiva solicita I saw lots of Sepedon sphegea flies.

Could these pupae stem from one of these species?

I don't know preimaginal Sciomyzidae, but according literature I have it looks like Sepedon sphegea.

I'd say Episyrphus balteatus (Syrphidae)

Are pupaes illustrated in the new finnish Syrphidae book?
