Do you...
have a good dorsal shot? Also if you can, take a close up pic of the exposed dorsal view of the abdomen (showing the tergites)...The abdominal symmetry often varies between sexes (males are generally asymmetrical, females symmetrical) and there are a few key diagnostic characters on the upperside that might help narrow it down to species. Also males and females have different diagnostic characters in the keys. The current pics that you have are excellent so far...just need a few more to go further.

 
Tentative ID
seems to be Callicorixa audeni; the few suggested additional shots will confirm it.
