I think that is Periscelis in genus level.

The actual specimen is necessary for species ID. The subgenus Myodris was raised to genus level and can only be distinguished based on male genitalia. Specific characters might indicate whether this species belongs there or in <i>Periscelis</i> but these simply are not visible on photos of specimens in alcohol.
