I was once told that the tachinid fly in the picture (probably waiting fof the oportunity to infect the larvae with the eggs) was from Drino genera. Was that right? thanks in advance.. very general entomologist |

Hard to say when it is so far away  What are the larvae? Maybe we can have some idea from the host? |

Yeah, they look like swaflies to me too - which would make it an odd host for Drino lota. Looks like it is on pine or spruce ... that might give some indication. |

Maybe the larva is something like Diprion pini (Diprionidae) ... |

Yes, given the host this is a female Drino inconspicua. Theo |
