Looks to be parasitized,
so colors are off making ID difficult. One possibility is Sunira, but that's just a guess. See what you think:

That is a possibility, howeve
That is a possibility, however I am not sure if it actually is parasitized or if there are some digital artifacts making it appear so. It does have a number of setae. There is at least one in which it is hard to tell if it is a hairlike structure or if it has been parasitized.
