orange dermestid larva - Trogoderma ornatum

orange dermestid larva - Trogoderma ornatum
Hudson, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
Size: about 6.5 mm
Found in January 2007 near remains of several moth pupae in small enclosed space under bay window. I don't think I've encountered one this color before.
