Hi JC, from what I see it could be a female Helina pertusa.

Thank you very much for this answer. Do you think Helina pertusa is "likely" or "very likely"? |

We cannot see all relevant characters like the katepisternal bristles, and the plumose arista, so I would say likely, not very likely. It's an eurasian species, appearing from Spain and Greece to Scotland, Sweden and northern Russia - larvae associated with dead wood. Greetings, Eric Kloeckner |
