I really have no idea. Can this be ID'd? My apologies for the dark and bad picture.
Is that a scratch on the side of the thorax?

Clusiodes subgenus Clusiodes, and probably C. albimanus but not sure (can't see well how many orbital setae stand on frons).

C. albimanus would also have been my guess.
