Hello,
In the south of France on 14 December 2022, a Syrphidae larva fed on a Lepidoptera caterpillar.
I kept the whole thing in a rearing cage that I found today, with the dried caterpillar, the pupa of the Diptera and the dead male imago.
Length of the larva: 15 mm
Length of the imago: 12 mm
Thank you for your advice

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
