good guess. indeed Stratiomyid and looking at the shape and color it must be Stratiomys. As i'm not familiar with the Turkish fauna I will not say anything about the species name, but to me it looks a bit like S. longicornis, but it may be some other, except S.singularior. The ones in the birds beak are also Stratiomyidae larva, but the genus is unknown, but resembles Stratiomys. |
