I'm not sure it is Exorista, it could be, it couldn't.
If it is Exorista, it is a female rustica-group (males ID possible only).

The face looks too white for the Exorista I see around here and I'm not sure the parafrontal bristles descend far enough :(

Chris formulated the grounds of my doubt excellently.
Now i've seen the blow-up, I'd be surprised if it is Exorista.
