Endomychidae
Without thinking too much about it, the lycid id looked wrong - finally thought a little bit more about it --> Check out Tom's nice picture of an Endomychus biguttatus larva, though I don't know how he got the species name for it. I would be a bit suspicious of any species names for larvae unless the adults were collected with it.

Thanks, Don. I forgot to compare heads :-)
Yes, this is clearly not what I first thought. I will stick it in Endomychidae for now. It could be the same species as Tom's under E. bigu*ttatus. I hope so since I have not collected that species previously.
