Paramastax is correct, amle as well, but it is according to Juan Manuel Cardena Paramastax duquei, male. There are some anatomic details which let him to this iD. Many thanks, Juan!

I think yours is Paramastax poecilosoma. The ID in my link above is wrong! It is not Duquei but also Paramastax poecilosoma, like yours. The ID is confirmed in a comment by Juan Manuel Cardona!
The colors and markings are different in Rosenbergi.
