Have been into all sp of Rhachitopis and is the best of all our ideas, but impossible to tell apart the species from the dead ones.
Not curvipes, the wings are longer in your one!
Rhachitopis ceraseus is the only with wings far beyond the "knee" of the hind leg

Yep, will probably have to let that one go for now.
What about your Acrotylus diana for this one-
