Thanks Di,
I think that view also looks like A. boisduvalii, but it's not very visible.
Ideally, you'd want to see the area in this image for A. boisduvalii:

Here is A. porosus for comparison, which has lines of white setae along the outer margins and through the midline of the pygidium, and a more polished surface structure:

A. pallidicollis can also look similar to A. porosus, but has the pygidium covered across the whole surface in white setae.

@HaukeKoch there is a 2nd photo on this sighting which shows the dorsal-view but not sure if it shows the pygidium detail you need (just wanted to let you know in case you didn’t see the 2nd photo)😊

This is likely A. boisduvalii given the streaked pattern of dark punctures on the elytra, but to definitely exclude A. porosus it's best to get a clear view of the back showing the dorsal side of the pygidium.
