Hello,

I found this larva in compost in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on March 4th 2021. I think it is a Stratiomyidae, but is it possible to determine at least its genus from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Hi Emanuele, larva in compost + colour & pattern: can it be Sargus cf. bipunctatus? https://diptera.i...d_id=92997
