Note that
antennal segment VI is only slightly widened at apex (distinctly widened in basirufus), and eyes separated by ~ one ocellar diameter (a bit less than 3 x ocellar diameter in basirufus). Moved from Pseudomasaris.

Can this photo take me to species?
And how do I request further ID? I’m kind of new here.

No need to request further ID.
We just need to wait for the relevant experts to have a look and take the ID further. The ID process could take minutes, or it could take years, but it doesn't stop until it has been taken as far as possible.
