Any suggestion? Larvae found inside a tomato can. The smallest could be Atherigona?

This bigger one looks a bit like a Syrphidae. If I look in Rotheray's 1993 key (see: https://diptera.i...p?cat_id=4) it shows some resemblance with Ferdinandea or Eumerus, but Ferdinandea appears to be related to sap runs, but Eumerus lives in plant bulbs. I also cannot rule out Cheilosia who may look like the other two, but differs in minute details of the anal segment and mandibles.

Thanks a lot. Yes, I suspect it's an Eristalinae, but that odd abdominal flagellum makes me doubt... |
