Larva - yes. It is almost in profile on side of tree. Rear claspers are beside the 2 long wispy bits of lichen ~ 1/4 way down picture. Its 'nose' is to right of circular mark on trunk at bottom of picture with wispy lichen sticking out in front of its head.

OK I thought we were probably dealing with a single species initially, so I didn't look at the markings too closely while agreeing that the overll size and shape looked Ok for the genus. But now I see BOLD (Hobern) shows 6 named Prays species as set specimens. However I think the P. autocasis specimen shown there does not look like your 2 photos from life. Neverttheless I agree your 2 sightings look closest to the single photo of P. autocasis shown on the ALA especially when viewed from the side. I would be happy to classify both as P. autocasis if there is moderator agreement on this.
