It's hard to make out much but have you tried
Aplomya confinis? Can we see the abdomen a bit better? :)

They have that 4th/5th tergite length feature ... and mine here all have a really distinctive & peculiar shiny, black coloration to tergite-5 ... almost like obsidian.

Yes but colouration is sexual dimorph, in the female the obsidian tergite 5 is lacking
