This appears to be a pyrchoid
This appears to be a pyrchoid larva. I've collected and reared them to adulthood. Cucujus clavipes larvae have a shorter head and shorter caudal spines in a different arrangement.

Rearing Pyrchoids
Hi Jim,

I recently found some Pyrchoid larvae, and I was wondering if you could offer me some of the details of rearing them to adults.

Thanks!

Crystal

Pyrochroidae
Thanks, Jim. There's an image of a pyrochroid larva on this Texas A&M page that matches this one. Moved to Fire-colored Beetles page.
