Hello,

Since you were successful in identifying my first larva, here's another challenge ! :p (I still don't even know whether it is diptera one or not, but it seems plausible to me)

This one was found inside a Zygaena trifolii cocoon instead of the expected chrysalid :

Length was 10 mm. Sainte Anne la Palud (Brittany, France). 15th July 2004

Who knows ? :)

I'd guess this is an ichneumon larva
