Remember that this larva is from Japan, so identification at the species level is quite impossible. I will look into that family, to be honest I have not even heard about it.

How usefull is Diptera.info !
This larvae I found in end august not as far as Japan, but in Moscow region, under dead tree bark. And during two month it was unknow Coleoptera larva.
It seems to me that grace to you Xespok I know now the Genus - Pytho.
And totaly in Russia known 5 species of Pythidae
