No ID, but it's not Harmonia axyridis
H. axyridis
never has orange on the thorax, and the abdominal tubercules have double-branched tips in all instars.
Details of pattern are useful, too:
H. axyridis
never has a gap of black color between orange dorsolateral tubercules, like this larva does. 2nd instar
H. axyridis
has orange only on first abdominal segment; 3rd and 4th instars have orange on the first 5 segments.
I'm raising every kind of lady beetle larva I find this summer, hopefully I'll get one that looks like this & find out what it is!

Thanks for the ID. Maybe sometime we will get it down to species. Every bit helps.
