Bourletiella christianseni
In Ptenothrix the shape of the body is kind of drop-like (thick posteriorly and tapering anteriorly) and the antennae are more slender and longer and the apex of the 3rd antennal segment is thickened (club-ilke).

The pigmentation pattern matches best with that of Bourletiella christianseni.

 
Thanks
