hmmm...
Wonder what the orange things were... It's strange, I don't see those with any of the other barklice. Thanks for the good place to start though!

orange blobs
Any chance the orange blobs could be eggs laid on the larvae? Parasites or parasitoids?

mites might be another choice. I think that Dryinids don't use barklice, so they would be out.
