Hi,
I am currently trying to rear Psychoda (specifically phalaenoides) and today I found larvae and pupae in my substrate. I hope someone of you can help me to identify them to the genus (or species) level, but I am also very happy if someone can identify/confirm the family.
Thank you very much!

both larva and pupa are Pychodidae, and the larva is very similar to Psychoda, but I can't identify the pupa for you.
