it is an Elampini I think, may be Omalus (not Pseudomalus or Philocteteqs : mesopleures of these genus are mor elongated).

Hi!

it's a Philoctetes, difficult to say which one without other views of the specimen. Surely not P. boganovi, because the T3 has the same colour of the rest of the abdomen.
The shape of mesopleuron is quite different between Pseudomalus and Philoctetes, in the first one is strongly projecting ventrally, in the second is more horizontal, and mostly projecting towards the abdomen.

Cheers
