Difficult.
Must be Goniini / Eryciini.
The eyes are hairy, excluding most 'Sturmiini', but still the calyptrae are very large.
So I'm thinking Carcelia or some Winthemiini.
Pity we don't have a lateral shot.

I like the idea of Winthemiini - I have always thought
Winthemia spp. have very wide abdomens. :)

IF Winthemia, it is some rather atypical one like variegata. Could be.
