it seems coridger group indeed, but the upper facets are only slightly enlarged, so unifasciata comes inmind.
Need to check this one

With the key of Aradi, the facets of cordiger are of different size, unifasciatus facets of the same size and small.
It is exact?

I'm not familiar with Aradi, never heard of, but it should be 'little enlarged' for unifasciatus, not 'not enlarged'.
In cordiger, the upper facets are 4 x as large as (the very small) lower facets. Quite like bromius, if that is of any help.
So this is unifasciatus.
