Most likely M. oblonga (Fabricius, 1775). How did you manage to keep it alive? G.

Thank you very much guys for your help. I kept it in 25 degrees C for more than 4 months to obtain adult. I think it feeds on that mushroom. |

Possibly it fed on some other inhabitants of that mushroom... G.

Thank you for your reply. Some eriphyid mites were also inside the mushroom. Is it possible that larva was a predator of mites? |
