Hello,

I photographed this larva in Bazzano (AQ), Italy, on June 4th 2019 on Galium aparine. I think it is a Syrphidae, but is it possible to identify the genus or species from these photos?

Thank you in advance,
Emanuele

Hi Emanuele, this is probably Eupeodes cf. luniger. To be sure we'd need to see the posterior breathing tubes.

Greetings, Eric
