Dytiscidae, dorsal - Neoporus undulatus Dytiscidae, lateral - Neoporus undulatus Dytiscidae, ventral - Neoporus undulatus Dytiscidae, head - Neoporus undulatus Dytiscidae, fore tarsal claws - Neoporus undulatus

N. undulatus it is
based on the additional image of the protarsal claws (subequal in length from what I can make of it). Thanks for adding the pic!

May be N. undulatus
but would to see a clearer view of the protarsal claws to be sure.

Moved tentatively; good call, hope our experts chime in
