Can Tachinidae have larvas in their body, i.e. are they parasited for other tachinidae or other insects? I tell this because today I saw a strange thing:

I saw two white spots that were attached in lateral body of tachinid, not so far of wings. They were below of the wings. it seems like a very tiny mealybugs, but less hairy.

thank you.
