American Chestnut larvae - Datana ministra

American Chestnut larvae - Datana ministra
Millcreek Township, Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, USA
July 19, 2020
Another image of the same colony of larvae on Castanea dentata (see other linked images). I'm letting these guys do their thing, because I think the sapling can handle it. They're larger, and the markings are more distinctive, but I still can't figure out exactly what they are, other than voracious. I can get better images if that would help.
