poss. Merosargus sp.
We found this little guy inching across our floor the other day. It looks the same on the top and bottom and undulated across the floor no matter which side it was on.

Thanks Juan. I think you are right…maybe Merosargus sp.
this is probably a Soldier fly (Stratiomyidae) larvae
It does look a little similar to the botfly larvae. I'm not sure if it is, but could be a good place to start your search.
