Hi,

I have photographed this larva which I suspect could belong to the suborder Tipulomorpha.
20km west of Paris in the litter of a deciduous forest.
Any opinion?
Thanks for your help!

Looks like Bibio larvae to me.

Thanks Irwin, you are probably right, pictures of Bibionidae are very resembling.
