not sure about id
this is one I would like to see a better photo of anal proleg and its basal claw. The photo is may be difficult since the basal claw is small and can be retracted. The head shape and thoracic setation look more like R. minor to me.

anal proleg shot added
I just enlarged the section of the other photo to see if that helps.

I am sorry
I should have mentioned the anal proleg view should be a lateral view. A ventral view may work but the lateral, or sometimes ventrolateral view is the best.
