Thank you very much.

With your guidance I edit the title, hoping that some other specialist also wants to give us their opinion.

Best regards.

Looks very like a female Dicrotendipes lobiger, but could be one of a number of similar species.

I can't be absolutely certain it's Dicrotendipes - just that the shape and colour matches lobiger.
