Hello, Is it possible to know the family and perhaps genus oh this larvae ? Found under old bark of dead wood on the ground, in the woods. They grazed the surface of dead wood.

Hi Jessica, I have an idea, but unfortunately could not find anything to substantiate this until now: it reminds me of a larva of a sawfly (Symphyta). But I've not heard of such a larva grazing under bark. What do you think about it and do you have more photos of the larva? Greetings, Eric |

Hello, Thank you for your answer ! I don't think it's a Symphyta because of the head, which is clearly visible and looks like the head of a caterpillar, but I could be wrong. Here is another picture, I have no other postures   Jessica Joachim : France : Verfeil : 31590 : 26/02/2021 Altitude : 196 m - Taille : 6 mm Réf. : 276942 |

First, I thought Mycetophilidae, but I don't find pictures of similar larvae. |

I hadn't noticed these two spots. Indeed it could be eyes. I'm looking but for the moment I can't find anything like it! |

pls add also detail of anal segment - it is probable Tipulomorpha - cf. Limoniidae |

the spotes marked with the yellow circles are the anterior spiracles. I don't even think it is a Diptera, but other than that, I don't recognize it. |
