Two pd on t3 (one long and one short) + it seems to have an av seta on t2.......
Two possibilities: Adia cinerella and Pegoplata aestiva.
We need a microscopic view on the propleura to see if this area is haired or not, to could say more....

On the propleura there seems to be some pollen...
It could be, the pollen stick on the little hairs present on the propleura. (P. aestiva)

But...maybe I just see, what I want to see....:D

Too dark for Adia cinerella. It could be Pegoplata aestiva as I can see an av-seta on mid tibia. But one needs to see the propleuron (proepisternum) for hairs (as Joke has pointed out) and is the face between bases of antennae swollen into a hump, a character of aestiva?
