Hi,
I have photographed this group of small maggots (width of photography representing less than 11mm) on a decaying log 20km West of Paris.
Any idea about the parents of these small colorful maggots?
Thanks for your help,

FRV

Most likely Sciaridae

Thank you very much Irvin. I hadn't noticed the black tip (head) on my photo!
