Pterolocera (genus) Anthelidae? It seems to my eye that the markings inthe head region are suggestive of simialr Pterolocera (genus) species.

A dorsal and a lateral photo rather than 2 dorsal photos would make identification easier, also a photo of the head, but that would involve capturing it for a while.
