Genus Anomalon - a member of Ichneumonid Wasps (Family Ichneumonidae)
Golden Tortoise Beetle larva Charidotella sexpunctata
Larva accumulates its shed skins and frass on a structure called an anal fork, which it positions over its body as a fecal shield, evidently hiding the larva from predators. This is usually effective against smaller insect predators such as ants, but not larger ones, such as hemipterans. After two through three weeks, a larval Charidotella sexpunctata becomes a spiny brown frass-covered pupa, and in one through two weeks later it emerges as an adult. - REF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charidotella_sexpunctata#Lifecycle
