Hi,
Larvae found in macrolepiota procera.
I think it is the same species in different stages, but not sure.
Maybe larvae of Tenebrionidae ?
Less than 10 mm. Cuise-La-Motte (Northen France) - october 2022
Thanks for the help.
Michel

To me, this looks like a staphylinid larva - ?subfamily Aleocharinae.

Hello, Tony,
I thought about it, but I couldn't find anything similar on the net, which doesn't prove anything.
Merry Christmas.

Could be - these little beetle larvae are a bit outside my comfort zone!

Hi,
A. Zaitsev' answer (see beautifuls photos at https://www.flick...58027@N02/) : " I agree with you that this larva is of Scaphidiinae, and most likely Scaphium ".
