In Savchenko's 1983 Tipulinae book http://ccw.natura..._1983a.pdf on the page 118 there are some Tipulide larva pictures. Tipula scripta larva is quite similar but not exactly same.

Very much looking like Tipula cava Riedel, 1913, distributed in Europe. Smile

Hello Amellado
welcome to the forum. First let me say that it is better to start a new thread instead of adding another question.
Secondly, although I'm not familiar with your fauna it looks closer to Nephrotoma than to Tipula.
