Maybe Nearctaphis or Brachycaudus.
Can you get a lateral picture? The marginal tubercles and spiracles are a good way to tell the 2 genera apart. This one looks like the sensoria are in a row on one side, and those 2 genera usually have a bunch scattered all over, not sure if that's a species variation or if I'm totally wrong on genus.
