Can anyone help me identify this little guy?

Rensselaer, NY

I have a tomato plant that I've recently observed these little guys munching on the leaves. So far I've found 4 of them and the attached photos are of the best specimen under a magnifying glass. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. If needed I have many more pictures. Thanks - Justin

This is a larva of a leaf beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), but I cannot provide a more specific identification. I have never seen the like on our tomatoes.
