  1. Hi, this does not look like Harmonia conformis larva which is shorter, chunkier with two rows of orange spines. Here's one I found for your comparison:
    Harmonia conformis ladybird larva Like a tiny armoured tank, making its way through foliage, on the look out for some juicy aphids to snack on. Psyllids and mealybugs are also part of the Harmonia conformis ladybird larva's diet. And I've read that they have also been observed feeding on larvae of other ladybird species. <br />
<br />
Harmonia conformis is one of our large, native ladybirds. <br />
