Carpet Beetle Larva
This looks similar to some of larvae in the genus Dermestes, but I'm not sure of the species. Let's see what the experts say.

 
What about Dermestes lardariu
What about Dermestes lardarius ?


 
I'm not sure
The larvae in this genus are very similar and I don't know enough about them. The experts will have to check your image, before placement to the species level.
At this time, several other images are still waiting, at the genus level. That is where I would place this until an expert can tells us what we can or cannot see, of the species-level characters.

 
It is OK with me ! Thanks !
