    I think this might actually be Euclea incisa. See photos here:
    https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/324665-Euclea-incisa/browse_photos

    In comparison, Euclea delphinii larvae can be seen here:

    The ID change would also apply to your other 2 photos of this individual:

    Did you get stung at all when moving it to the different surfaces?     Posted 2 years ago

      Thank you for the ID challenge. Looks very convincing, so went ahead and changed the species on all 3 photos. Posted 2 years ago
