Hello, I found these pupae on the same Phragmites reed as I found the Sciomyzids posted in this thread. Besides Elgiva solicita I saw lots of Sepedon sphegea flies. Could these pupae stem from one of these species? Greetings Nele |

I don't know preimaginal Sciomyzidae, but according literature I have it looks like Sepedon sphegea. Nikita Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

I'd say Episyrphus balteatus (Syrphidae)

I told myself: "Nikita, if you don't know preimaginal Sciomyzidae , you had better keep silence "
