Soldier flies are a large Diptera family with a diverse larval biology. Larvae of several subfamilies live in decaying organic, usually vegetable material. Some of these species have spread over large parts of the world due to human transport (trade). In this article, we report the first European record of a New World genus with this type of larval biology. Only a photo is available and unfortunately it is not possible to identify it to the species level.
