Dear friends!
Even your silence is usefull.
I understand it, that I can exclude Diptera out of possible answers:D

Hello Paul,
a friend of mine (Coleopterologist) told my that according his key for insecta larvae it is Ceratopogonidae.
What do you think about this possibility, please?
Nikita

Well, perhaps it is, but it does not resemble any of the illustrations of ceratopogonid larvae I have in my books. :)
