probably subfamily Tenthredininae
I can’t count the annulets, but I think it’s the same.

if on Sambucus then possibly Macrophya sp.
and also possibly these are the same larvae at different ages

This looks to be a sawfly larva
The plant ID should help with the sawfly ID

It's a caterpillar look-alike...
not a true caterpillar. But it's still fun to learn about the critters!
