Third image seems to show the markings on foreparts the larva reasonably consistent with the LBH illustration.

LBH shows yellow and black stripes on the larva, like M.elongatus, rather than a complex b/w pattern like C. lewinii. Possibly Harriet was confused, or this is yet another species. I do hope you can rear it to get an adult.🤞
